Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography Toyopearl resins for Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) is a powerful tool for the process purification of biomolecules. The technique utilizes the accessible hydrophobic regions located on protein surfaces and their interactions with a weakly hydrophobic stationary phase. HIC is an excellent complement to ion exchange and size exclusion chromatography particularly when protein isoforms exist or when feedstock impurities are of similar isoelectric point or molecular weight. The selectivity differences exploited by HIC can also be used after affinity separations in which closely related proteins with similar recognition sites are not distinguishable by the affinity ligand. How does HIC work? Proteins and other molecules with hydrophobic surfaces are attracted to the hydrophobic ligands of both reversed phase (RP) and HIC resins. RP resins have higher surface coverage and/or more hydrophobic ligand compared to HIC resins. Because of this, in a RP separation the target binding readily occurs in an aqueous solution, and desorption is promoted by the addition of an increasing amount of organic solvent. In HIC, proteins are bound to the resin by employing an aqueous high salt mobile phase. The salt conditions contribute to a lyotropic effect which allows the proteins to bind to the lower surface coverage of a hydrophobic ligand. Proteins are eluted by the simple technique of decreasing the salt concentration. Most therapeutic targets are eluted in a low salt or a no salt buffer. During elution the energy of interaction for a HIC step is less than that of a RP step. One means of gauging the relative binding energy between the two techniques is to measure the surface tension of the two sets of binding and elution conditions. Figure 1 provides a comparison of the surface tension generated by HIC and RP elution systems. Since HIC separates under milder eluting conditions, biological activity is typically retained. Five different hydrophobic surfaces and selectivities Tosoh Bioscience offers five HIC ligands featuring different degrees of hydrophobicity and selectivity. The hydrophobicity of Toyopearl HIC resins increases through the ligand series: Ether, PPG (polypropyleneglycol), Phenyl, Butyl, and Hexyl (Figure 2).

Coordinating the hydrophobicity of the therapeutic target to the resin hydrophobicity is critical for the best overall purification performance. Too hydrophobic a resin for a given protein can result in its irreversible binding to the resin or a loss of enzymatic activity. Table I and II show typical mass recovery and biological activity recovery data for Toyopearl HIC resins. An optimum HIC process step will balance high dynamic binding capacity, adequate selectivity, good mass recovery and retention of biological activity. The wide range of Toyopearl selectivities enables a developer to optimize protein separations at the extremes of the hydrophobic spectrum. Highly retentive Toyopearl Hexyl-type and Toyopearl Butyl-type resins are used to separate hydrophilic proteins. These two resins should also be considered for separations requiring a low salt environment. Toyopearl Ether-type resin is used for the purification of very hydrophobic targets such as certain monoclonal antibodies and membrane proteins. These proteins may bind irreversably to other more hydrophobic resins. Toyopearl PPG-type and Toyopearl Phenyl-type phases complement the other HIC ligands available in the Toyopearl series and offer alternatives Table I High mass recovery (%) of proteins Toyopearl HIC resin Ether Phenyl Butyl -65M -65M -65M Bovine serum albumin 84 62 76* α-chymotrypsinogen 96 88* 9 Cytochrome C 81* 87* IgG 91 α-lactalbumin 9 Lysozyme 94 92 85 Ovalbumin 83 88 73 Ribonuclease A 72* 82* Procedure: A 2 ml sample containing 2 mg of protein was loaded onto a 7.5 mm ID x 7.5 cm L column and eluted with a 6 minute gradient of 1.8 mol/l (*1.5 mol/l) to. mol/l ammonium sulfate in.1 mol/l sodium phosphate (ph 7.).

ToyoScreen prepacked columns for process development ToyoScreen columns packed with the full range of our Toyopearl HIC products are available in 1 ml and 5 ml resin volumes. They provide a convenient way to screen different resins for both target retention and recovery. Multiple columns can be connected in series for additional separation. Please see the ordering information at the end of this section or contact us for more information on these products. The retention and selectivity of protein standards on Toyopearl HIC resins using the ToyoScreen process development columns are shown in Figure 3. Influence of salt type In addition to the hydrophobicity of the ligand, the selectivity in HIC is influenced by the eluent salt type. Figure 4 demonstrates the effect of salt type on the resolution factor of different protein pairs.

Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography The Hofmeister lyotropic salt series shown in Figure 5 ranks anions and cations by their ability to promote protein precipitation. Ions on the left are referred to as lyotropic while the ions on the right are called chaotropic. Lyotropic salts will precipitate or salt out proteins at high salt concentrations due to increased hydrophobic interaction, while chaotropic salts will promote protein denaturation at high salt concentrations. Figure 5 indicates that different salt systems may generate a variety of adsorption and desorption selectivities for each resin. This feature of HIC provides an additional parameter for the optimization of a process step.

NaCl is often used as well. Particle size optimization Toyopearl and TSK-GEL PW-type methacrylic base beads incorporate the same polymer chemistry (see Figure 6 or refer to the Size Exclusion section for a more detailed discussion) and are available in a variety of particle sizes: 1 µm Toyopearl C-grade Capture 65 µm Toyopearl M-grade Intermediate Purification 35 µm Toyopearl S-grade Intermediate Purification/Polishing 3 and 2 µm TSK-GEL PW-type High Resolution In many cases analytical columns are available packed with 1 µm particles having the same selectivity as the process media. Figure 7 shows the variety of ligands and particle sizes available for HIC process-scale applications. This figure also depicts where each particle size is used in a chromatographic manufacturing train (i.e. for capture, intermediate purification, or polishing).

Mechanical stability The semi-rigid polymeric backbone of Toyopearl and TSK-GEL HIC resins permits high flow rates for maximum throughput and productivity. Toyopearl resins may be operated up to 3 bar and TSK- GEL PW-type resins may be operated up to 2 bar. The pressure-flow characteristics for each particle size grade of Toyopearl Phenyl-65 resins are shown in Figure 8. The beads are compatible with both fixed bed and dynamic axial compression columns. Chemical stability The polymeric structure of these products also makes them resistant to a wide range of ph conditions and ionic strengths. In addition, the hydroxylated surface of the base bead reduces non-specific binding of proteins. Pore size optimization Most Toyopearl HIC products are derived from the versatile size exclusion resin, Toyopearl HW-65 (1, Å mean pore size), as the base bead for the majority of protein separations. But the pore size and accessible surface area of Toyopearl can be optimized for a given protein. More accessible surface area increases the dynamic binding capacity (DBC) of the bead for a particular therapeutic target. This has led to the development of two specialty lines of HIC materials with higher dynamic binding capacities. High dynamic binding capacity Toyopearl process resins For monoclonal antibodies a pore size of 75 Å is optimum. A specially made base resin, Toyopearl HW-6, has this pore size. Three ligands are available on Toyopearl HW-6: Toyopearl PPG-6M, Toyopearl Phenyl- 6M and Toyopearl Butyl-6M. A comparison of their DBCs with Toyopearl Phenyl-65M is shown in Figure 9. The selectivities of Toyopearl Butyl-6M, Toyopearl PPG-6M and the new Toyopearl Phenyl-6M are shown in Figure 1.

Figure 11 compares the selectivities of the new Toyopearl Phenyl-6M, Toyopearl Phenyl-65M and an agarose Phenyl resin. For smaller molecules such as lysozyme (12, Da) the even narrower pore diameter Toyopearl SuperButyl-55C (derived from the 5 Å pore diameter Toyopearl HW-55) is recommended. A comparison of the DBC of Toyopearl SuperButyl-55C with other Toyopearl HIC resins is shown in Figure 12.

(Figure 13). The engineered higher dynamic binding capacity of the 6 and 55 series HIC products for their specific targets and the selectivity differences induced by the smaller mean pore size of the respective beads, can have a dramatic impact on process economics. Improving target feedstock concentration and purity for downstream steps can greatly enhance throughput and reduce process costs. Monoclonal antibodies Hydrophobic interaction is a very useful technique for the purification of monoclonal antibodies. The diverse hydrophobic nature of mabs is seen in Figure 14. This figure measures the hydrophobicity (using elution time as a surrogate measurement) of 51 different mouse IgGs on a TSK-GEL Phenyl-5PW analytical column. Some of the IgGs have elution times 2-3 times longer than others indicating greater hydrophobicity. The Toyopearl series of HIC ligands (Figure 2) with their different hydrophobicities gives chromatographic developers a range of options for finding the right ligand for their target molecule. For a very hydrophobic mab, such as mouse anti-chicken 14 kda lectin, the less hydrophobic Toyopearl Ether ligand works quite well. The Breakthrough curve (lysozyme) purification from ascites fluid (Figure 15) was performed with a 1 µm TSKgel Ether-5PW semi-preparative column. Identical selectivity for scale-up was found with corresponding 65 µm Toyopearl Ether-65M. 32 www.toyopearl.com

Early work by Karger et al 1 in 1989 involving proteins and aggregates larger than 2 kda demonstrated the effectiveness of HIC for this application. Glycoproteins Toyopearl HIC resins can purify glycoproteins, which often bind irreversibly to saccharide-based chromatographic media. Figure 16 shows the purification of a large glycoprotein on Toyopearl Butyl-65S resin. DNA plasmid purification and endotoxin removal Toyopearl Hexyl-65C resin was successfully used for plasmid DNA purification by Cambrex, Baltimore, MD (US patent 6,953,686). Hexyl- 65C was shown to be the most effective among HIC resins for endotoxin removal with capacities exceeding 2 million EU/mL of resin. Additionally, RNA and protein impurities were effectively eliminated. Hexyl-65C was also effective in separating the supercoiled and open circular forms of plasmid DNA. Removal of misfolded proteins Because misfolded proteins will generally be more hydrophobic than the native protein, Toyopearl Butyl-65M resin is used frequently for the removal of misfolded proteins. In many cases flow through chromatography can be accomplished under eluent conditions binding the misfolds while allowing the target to flow through the column.
