Definitions
- This invention relates to methods of removing high molecular weight aggregates from an antibody preparation using hydroxyapatite chromatography.
- the amount of high molecular weight aggregates present in the final preparation can be reduced significantly, such as from 40% to less than 1 %.
- HMWA high molecular weight aggregates
- Hydroxyapatite chromatography is a method of purifying proteins that utilizes an insoluble hydroxylated calcium phosphate [Ca ⁇ o(P0 4 ) 6 (OH) 2 ], which forms both the matrix and ligand.
- Functional groups consist of pairs of positively charged calcium ions (C-sites) and clusters of negatively charged phosphate groups (P-sites).
- C-sites positively charged calcium ions
- P-sites negatively charged phosphate groups
- the interactions between hydroxyapatite and proteins are complex and multi-mode. In one method of interaction, however, positively charged amino groups on proteins associate with the negatively charged P-sites and protein carboxyl groups interact by coordination complexation to C-sites. Shepard, J. of Chromatography 891 :93- 98 (2000).
- Crystalline hydroxyapatite was the first type of hydroxyapatite used in chromatography, but it was limited by structural difficulties. Ceramic hydroxyapatite (cHA) chromatography was developed to overcome some of the difficulties associated with crystalline hydroxyapatite, such as limited flow rates. Ceramic hydroxyapatite has high durability, good protein binding capacity, and can be used at higher flow rates and pressures than crystalline hydroxyapatite.
