    Summary

    This study presents a robust multidimensional chromatography method combining size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) and reversed-phase chromatography (RPC) for efficient protein separation. The protocol details both manual and automated approaches for complex biological mixtures.

    Area of Science:

    • Analytical Chemistry
    • Biochemistry
    • Chromatography

    Background:

    • Multidimensional chromatography offers enhanced separation power for complex mixtures.
    • Size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) and reversed-phase chromatography (RPC) are orthogonal separation modes with compatible mobile phases.
    • Automated fraction transfer is crucial for scalable multidimensional chromatography systems.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a protocol for multidimensional chromatography coupling SEC and RPC.
    • To illustrate the application of this method for separating soluble proteins from Escherichia coli.
    • To demonstrate both manual and automated (external column switching) implementations.

    Main Methods:

    • Coupling of size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) as the first dimension with reversed-phase chromatography (RPC) as the second dimension.

  • Manual collection and injection of SEC fractions into the RPC system.
  • Automated fraction transfer using external column switching integrated into a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system.

    • Main Results:

    • Demonstrated the feasibility of combining SEC and RPC for protein separation.
    • Successfully separated soluble proteins from Escherichia coli using the developed protocol.
    • Validated both manual and automated methods for fraction transfer and subsequent RPC analysis.

    Conclusions:

    • The SEC-RPC multidimensional chromatography approach provides effective separation of complex protein mixtures.
    • The described protocol, including automated HPLC integration, is scalable and efficient.
    • This method is valuable for analyzing biological samples like soluble proteins from E. coli.
