Purity Analysis

Background:: Protein A affinity chromatography is often employed as the most crucial purification step for monoclonal antibodies to achieve high yield with purity and throughput requirements. Introduction:: Protein A, also known as Staphylococcal protein A (SPA) is found in the cell wall of the bacteria staphylococcus aureus. It is one of the first discovered immunoglobulin binding molecules and has been extensively studied since the past few decades. The efficiency of Protein A affinity chromatography to purify a recombinant monoclonal antibody in a cell culture sample has been evaluated, which removes 99.0% of feed stream impurities. Materials and Method:: We have systematically evaluated the purification performance by using a battery of analytical methods SDS-PAGE (non-reduced and reduced sample), Cation Exchange Chromatography (CEX), Size-exclusion chromatography (SEC), and Reversed phased-Reduced Chromatography for a CHO-derived monoclonal antibody. Results and Discussion:: The analytical test was conducted to determine the impurity parameter, Host Cell Contaminating Proteins (HCP). It was evaluated to be 0.015ng/ml after the purification step; while initially, it was found to be 24.431ng/ml. Conclusion:: The tests showed a distinct decrease in the level of different impurities after the chromatography step. It can be concluded that Protein A chromatography is an efficient step in the purification of monoclonal antibodies.

Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) has been purified by a combination of methods including antibody-affinity chromatography. The resultant protein, obtained in 16% yield from maternal serum, appeared as a single major component on non-denaturing polyacrylamide and SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The protein showed a single component when analysed by isoelectric focusing under denaturing conditions in the presence and absence of reduction and had a pI of 4.34 and 4.42 respectively. These pI values were indistinguishable from those of alpha 2-macroglobulin (alpha 2M). The molecular weight of the PAPP-A polypeptide as shown by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis was 187000, with a minor component of mol.wt. 82500 that was attributed to proteolysis. Since native PAPP-A had a molecular weight on gel chromatography very similar to that of alpha 2M (620000–820000), it was concluded that PAPP-A was a homotetramer. In the absence of reduction, a high-molecular-weight (420000) protomer of PAPP-A was found. It was deduced that PAPP-A, like alpha 2M, is a dinner, whose protomers are composed of disulphide-linked polypeptide chains. It was found that the molecular weight of the PAPP-A polypeptide exceeded that of alpha 2M by 3.3%, but that the total carbohydrate content of PAPP-A exceeded that of alpha 2M by 10% and that its neutral carbohydrate content exceeded that of alpha 2M by between 7.4 and 9.0%. The significance of the estimated molecular weights of alpha 2M (181000) and its major tryptic fragments is discussed in the light of published values. A tryptic fragment alpha 2M (82500 mol.wt.) was apparently the same size as the major tryptic fragment of PAPP-A.
