General description

Hydrophobic ligands can serve as potentselective adsorbents. Both ω-aminoalkyl and alkyl agaroses can interact with the hydrophobic regions found in various proteins. The ω-aminoalkyl agarose product offered here consists of activated agarose with 1,6-diaminohexane covalently attached to one of its amine groups.

Application

ω-Aminohexyl–Agarose has been used in the conjugation of fatty acids with chain length from two carbons to 20 for fatty acyl beads pull-down experiments.
ω-aminohexyl–agarose has been used for coupling of serotype b-specific carbohydrate antigen (SbAg) of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans Y4 for isolation of anti-SbAg antibodies using protein chromatography.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ω-aminoalkyl-agaroses are used in chromatography. In these, the protein is retained by lipophilic association between the hydrocarbon side chains on the agarose and hydrophobic pockets in the protein.

Physical form

Suspension in 0.5 M NaCl containing preservative

A method is described to purify recombinant HIV-1 protease from soluble extracts of Escherichia coli. The isolation involves QAE-Sepharose anion exchange chromatography, hexyl agarose hydrophobic interaction chromatography, MonoS cation exchange chromatography, and Superose 6 size exclusion chromatography. Approximately 100 micrograms

This work investigated the potential use of an alternative adsorbent to anti-immunoglobulin E (IgE)-agarose for IgE selective adsorption therapy. A screening of several commercially available adsorbents (Concanavalin A, Lens culinaris[Lc], d-tryptophan, poly-l-lysine, and aminohexyl immobilized on agarose) was done through

Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) is composed of structurally autonomous domains. From the N-terminus of t-PA, a finger-like domain (F), an epidermal growth factor-like domain (G), two kringle domains (K1 and K2) and a serine protease domain (P) can be discerned.
