Abstract:
The sorbents with immobilized histidine as a pseudo affinity ligand with a wide specificity is described. The possibilities and relevant chemistries to use both particulate and flat or hollow fiber membranes as support matrices are discussed. The usefulness of such adsorbents for the purification of a wide variety of proteins, with relevant interaction mechanism are described. Practical protocols of sample quality, capacity and scaled up and scaled down operations are discussed. Possibilities of pyrogen removal from high value blood proteins and their simultaneous recovery in the pure form, using histidine immobilized sorbents are described.

Ligand Binding Sites
Protein-ligand interactions are quite specific; even though numerous potential ligands surround a cellular protein at any given time, only a particular ligand can bind to that protein. Moreover, a ligand binds only to a dedicated area on the surface of the protein, known as the...
