    Affinity Chromatography (AC) 1 Affinity Chromatography (AC) • Principles of AC • Main stages in Chromatography • How to prepare Affinity gel - Ligand Immobilization - Spacer arms – Coupling methods – Coupling tips • Types of AC • Elution Conditions • Binding equilibrium, competitive elution, kinetics • Industrial Examples: Protein A/G for Therapeutic proteins • Future Considerations 2 What is affinity chromatography? Affinity chromatography is a technique of liquid chromatography which separates molecules through biospecific interactions. The molecule to be purified is specifically and reversibly adsorbed to a specific ligand The ligand is immobilized to an insoluble support (“matrix”): resin, “chip”, Elisa plate, membrane, Western, IP (immuneprecipitation), etc Introduction of a “spacer arm” between the ligand and the matrix to improve binding Elution of the bound target molecule a) non specific or b) specific elution method 3 What is it used for? Monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies Fusion proteins Enzymes DNA-binding proteins . ANY protein where we have a binding partner!! 4 Designing and preparing an affinity gel Choosing the matrix Designing the ligand - Spacer arms Coupling methods 5 Ligand Immobilization Ligand + Activating agent + Matrix Activated Immobilised matrix ligand 6 Designing the ligand Essential ligand properties: interacts selectively and reversibly with the target Carries groups which can couple it to the matrix without losing its binding activity Available in a pure form 7 Steric considerations & spacer arms Small ligand (<1,000) Risk of steric interference with binding between matrix and target molecule Often need spacer arm but watch out for Spacer arm adsorption to the spacer! 8 Design of spacer arms Alkyl chain Real risk of unspecific interactions between H H spacer and target molecule O O Hydrophilic chain Risk of unspecific interactions greatly O H reduced No coupling reaction will use 100% of the available binding sites.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Synthetic binding proteins are constructed using non-antibody molecular scaffolds. Over the last two decades, in-depth structural and functional analyses of synthetic binding proteins have improved combinatorial library designs and selection strategies, which have resulted in potent platforms that consistently generate binding proteins to diverse targets with affinity and specificity that rival those of antibodies. Favorable attributes of synthetic binding proteins, such as small size, freedom from disulfide bond formation and ease of making fusion proteins, have enabled their unique applications in protein science, cell biology and beyond. Here, we review recent studies that illustrate how synthetic binding proteins are powerful probes that can directly link structure and function,
