A three-step purification of human alpha 1-acid glycoprotein
FEBS Letters
|March 12, 1984
Abstract:
alpha 1-Acid glycoprotein (AGP) was purified to homogeneity by a 3-step procedure using pseudo-ligand affinity chromatography on immobilized Cibacron blue F3GA, Procion red HE3B, and preparative column isoelectric focusing. The overall yield of the combined techniques was 88%. Analysis of the purified AGP by lectin affinity chromatography on immobilized Con A and immunoaffino-electrophoresis indicated that the most acidic form did not interact with the lectin, while the two more basic fractions possessed different affinities for Con A. In addition, 3 different populations of AGP were clearly separated by Con A affinity chromatography.
