Benefits of technology

The patent describes a new ligand that can bind to immunoglobulins with high affinity. Additionally, this ligand is more stable in alkali than other similar ligands.

Problems solved by technology

For many affinity chromatography matrices containing proteinaceous affinity ligands such alkaline environment is a very harsh condition and consequently results in decreased capacities owing to instability of the ligand to the high pH involved.

example 2

[0085]The purified tetrameric and hexameric ligands Z(N23T)4 (SEQ ID NO: 3) and Z(N23T)6 (SEQ ID NO: 4) were immobilized on Biacore CM5 sensor chips (GE Healthcare, Sweden) in an amount sufficient to give a signal strength of about 1000RU in a Biacore instrument (GE Healthcare, Sweden). To follow the IgG binding capacity of the immobilized surface 1 mg / ml hIgG (Gammanorm, as described above) was flowed over the chip and the signal strength was noted. The surface was then cleaned-in-place (CIP), i.e. flushed with 500 mM NaOH for 10 minutes. This was repeated for 96 cycles and the immobilized ligand alkaline stability was followed as the relative loss of IgG binding capacity (signal strength) after each cycle. The results are shown in FIG. 1 and indicate that the alkali stability of the hexamer Z(N23T)6 (Z6, upper curve) is significantly better than for the tetramer Z(N23T)4 (Z4, lower curve).

Abstract

The invention discloses a polypeptide capable of binding immunoglobulins or immunoglobulin-containing proteins, which polypeptide comprises six or more domains of protein Z or the C domain of protein A or a functional variant thereof. It also discloses separation matrices comprising the polypeptide and methods of using the separation matrices for separation of immunoglobulins or immunoglobulin-containing proteins.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to the field of affinity chromatography, and more specifically to a separation matrix containing ligands comprising multimers of Protein Z or the C domain of Protein A. The invention also relates to methods for the separation of proteins of interest with aforementioned matrix, with the advantage of increased capacity and alkali stability.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Immunoglobulins represent the most prevalent biopharmaceutical products in either manufacture or development worldwide. The high commercial demand for and hence value of this particular therapeutic market has led to the emphasis being placed on pharmaceutical companies to maximize the productivity of their respective mAb manufacturing processes whilst controlling the associated costs.[0003]Affinity chromatography is used in most cases, as one of the key steps in the purification of these immunoglobulin molecules, such as monoclonal or polyclonal anti...
