Three-Step Column Chromatographic Method for Separation and Purification of Thrombin-Like Enzyme from Venom of Agkistrodon halys pallas
三步柱色谱法从江浙蝮蛇蛇毒中分离纯化类凝血酶

A three-step column chromatographic method, utilizing CM Sepharose CL-6B, DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow and Sephadex G-75 in sequence, for the separation and purification of thrombin-like enzyme from crude venom of Agkistrodon halys pallas was developed. Based on the separation results on lab-scale chromatographic column, this isolation and purification process was amplified according to the diameter of the chromatographic columns used in lab-scale. It was found that when the amount of the sample loaded on the large-scale columns was 25 times as that loaded on the lab-scale columns, the quality level of the thrombin-like enzyme obtained with the large-scale columns was almost the same as that obtained with lab-scale columns. The relative molecular mass of thrombin-like enzyme obtained was about 33 500, and its purity was about 96%. When using this method to isolate thrombin-like enzyme from crude venom of Agkistrodon halys pallas, the total protein yield and total activity yield of thrombin-like enzyme were about 0.3% and 64% respectively, and specific activity was more than 2 000 U/mg.
