Da. Cowan et Rm. Daniel, RAPID PURIFICATION OF 2 THERMOPHILIC PROTEINASES USING DYE-LIGAND CHROMATOGRAPHY, Journal of biochemical and biophysical methods, 32(1), 1996, pp. 1-6
Dye-ligand chromatography has been used successfully for the purificat
ion of extracellular thermostable proteinases from thermophilic Bacill
us and Thermus cultures. Single-step purification factors of up to 115
-fold (for Thermus protease) and 2195-fold (for Bacillus protease) wer
e obtained, Elution studies suggested that the mode of binding involve
d the enzyme active sites. The method was readily scalable to 600 1 vo
lume.
