  • the method comprises contacting a sample containing the compound of interest with a bi—affinity column comprising two ligands to which the compound releasably binds.
  • the column is then contacted with a first eluate which elutes those compounds which releasably bind to one of the two ligands.
  • the column is thereafter contacted with a second eluate which elutes compounds which releasably bind to the other ligand.
  • this process is continued in an alternating fashion for a sufficient number of times until the undesirable components of the sample have been removed.
  • the compound of interest is then recovered by contacting the column with an eluate which elutes compounds which releasably bind to both ligands.
  • TPA tissue plasminogen activator
  • such compounds can be separated, purified and/or identified by (i) contacting a sample containing the compound of interest with a bi-affinity column comprising both ligands to which the compound has an affinity, (ii) alternately contacting the column with eluates which elute compounds which bind to one ligand but not the other, and (iii) contacting the column with an eluate which elutes compounds which have an affinity for both ligands.
  • the eluates which may be used in practicing the present invention will vary depending on the compound of interest, and more particularly on the ligands used to construct the bi-affinity column.
  • the eluate used should be one which releases the compound of interest from the metal without breaking the bond between the metal and the matrix used to support the metal.
  • Weak chelating agents such as imidazole may be used where the matrix is a metal saturated chelating resin such as Pharmacia's chelating-sepharose.
  • the alternate eluate used will be a strong ionic solution such as NaCl.
  • the eluates chosen will depend on the ligands used to construct the bi-affinity column as well as the relative affinity of those ligands for the compound of interest. Recovery of the compound from the column may be achieved with a gradient of the eluates used in the alternate eluting steps. Fractions are then collected and analysed for the compound of interest.
  • the method of the present invention has been particularly useful in the separation, identification and purification of FGFs.
  • the method preferably comprises the steps of: (i) contacting a sample containing FGFs with a bi-affinity column comprising heparin and copper on a suitable support; and (ii) eluting the species of FGFs with a suitable eluate such as an increasing concentration gradient of materials which are effective to remove the FGF's from the heparin and the copper.
  • a suitable eluate such as an increasing concentration gradient of materials which are effective to remove the FGF's from the heparin and the copper.
  • the column is rinsed singly with eluates for heparin-binding proteins and for copper-binding proteins prior to the elution of the FGF's themselves.
  • the method also involves collecting fractions containing the separated species of FGFs.
  • the heparin and copper components of the bi-affinity column are preferably in the form of a •mixture or blend of heparin-Sepharose (Pharmacia Fine Chemicals, Sweden) and a copper-saturated chelating-Sepharose (Pharmacia Fine Chemicals, Sweden) , although other suitable heparin-resins such as heparin-agarose (Sigma) and chelating-resins such as iminodiacetic acid-agarose (Sigma) may be used in lieu thereof.
  • the chromatographic media is preferably constituted so that the number of available heparin-binding sites is approximately equal to the number of available copper-binding sites.
  • the ratio by weight percent of heparin-Sepharose to the copper-saturated chelating-Sepharose is preferably from about 10:1 to about 1:10, and most preferably about 1:1.
  • the eluates used in connection with this invention will vary depending on the compound of interest.
  • the eluate should not contain materials which react unfavorably with the chromatography medium involved, or with the compounds sought to be recovered.
  • such eluates will normally be aqueous solutions containing physiological salt and suitable buffering materials to maintain the pH at around 7.
  • the preferred buffering composition is Tris, in a concentration of about 10 mM.
  • Preferred eluates for eluting heparin-binding proteins from the column comprise salt solutions, e.g. halides of metals of group 1 or 2 of the periodic table of the elements. NaCl is most preferred, and it can be used in increasing concentration gradients, or in varying concentrations, depending upon the usage and the materials to be eluted.
  • Other suitable eluates include sulfates such as (NH 4 ) 2 S0 4 .
  • Preferred eluates for eluting copper-binding proteins from the column comprise solutions containing materials, generally organic materials, which have a greater affinity for the metal component in the chromatographic media than the proteins to be eluted so that the materials to be eluted are displaced from their association with the metal without interfering with the bond between the metal and the supporting resin.
  • Imidazole is preferred, and can be used in increasing concentration gradients, or in varying concentrations, depending upon the usage and the materials to be eluted.
  • the bi-affinity column is pre-equilibrated with an appropriate solution in which the compound of interest is stable, for example for
  • FGF a 1 to 3M NaCl, 10 mM Tris, pH 7.
  • Pre-equilibriation helps to reduce the undesirable sticking of other components of the sample to the ligands used in the bi-affinity column.
  • Eluates, reactants and other solutions which come in contact with the compound of interest should also contain suitable buffers and other ingredients in order to avoid undesirable changes in the structure or function of the compound.
  • Samples which contain the compound of interest to be separated, identified or purified are preferably partially purified prior to contact with the bi-affinity column of the present invention by, for example, batchwise adsorption to a conventional affinity chromatography column containing a ligand known to bind to that compound. This partial purification helps to prevent overloading of the bi-affinity column with contaminants or other undesirable components of the sample.
  • the partially purified sample is applied directly to the pre-equilibrated bi-affinity column.
  • the column is thereafter consecutively rinsed with, depending on the size of the column, from about 100 to about 200 ml volumes of one or more eluates to remove materials from the column other than those which bind to both ligands.

  • the column is consecutively rinsed with (i) a 2 M NaCl solution, (ii) a 0.6 M NaCl solution, (iii) a 0.6 M NaCl plus a 10 mM imidazole solution, and (iv) a 0.6 M NaCl solution.
  • Rinse (i) is to remove those components of the sample which bind to heparin, but not to copper.
  • Rinse (ii) is to re-equilibrate the column to allow the protein of interest to bind back to the other ligand, i.e. heparin.
  • Rinse (iii) is to remove those components of the sample which bind to copper, but not to heparin.
  • Rinse (iv) is to again re-equilibrate the column prior to the ultimate elution of the protein of interest.
  • all of rinses (i) through (iv) would tend to remove materials or contaminants which were not bound to heparin, copper or some other component of the chromatography media.
  • the FGFs are eluted with an appropriate eluting gradient such as an NaCl/imidazole gradient.
  • the NaCl/imidazole gradient preferably comprises a 0 to 0.6 M NaCl without imidazole to a 2 to 3 M NaCl plus a 10 to 20 mM imidazole at a pH of about 7.
  • the volume of the gradient depends on the size of the column employed.
  • the NaCl/imidazole gradient comprises about 100 ml of 0.6 M NaCl without imidazole to about 100 ml of 2 M NaCl plus 10 mM imidizole at a pH of about 7.

  • NaCl is increasing in concentration from 0.6 to 2 M.
  • the source of the sample e.g. brain vs.
  • this gradient can be optimized by changing the imidazole and NaCl concentrations to improve separation of the various species of FGF present in the particular sample.

  • the volume of fractions collected from the column will also vary depending on a number of factors including the resolving power of the column. That is, the greater the resolving power, the greater the fraction that can be collected. In general, for the above described column, the volume of fractions collected is between about 2 and 10 ml, preferably between about 3 and 7 ml, and most preferably about 5 ml.
  • fractions eluted from the bi-affinity column in accordance with the present invention may be analyzed by a number of methods to confirm resolution of the compound of interest from the original sample.
