title: Ceramic hydroxyapatite high-performance liquid chromatography of complexes membrane protein and sodium dodecylsulfate.
abstract: Ceramic hydroxyapatite high-performance liquid chromatography was examined as a chromatographic method by which complexes of whole membrane proteins and sodium dodecyl sulfate could be analyzed. The chromatographic conditions were optimized using the erythrocyte membrane as a model. Whole proteins, including membrane proteins larger than 100 kDa, were eluted as sharp peaks from the column and separated well from each other under optimum conditions. This method gave better resolution of protein-SDS complexes than other chromatographic methods reported so far. The sodium dodecyl sulfate complexes of 24 well characterized proteins were analyzed by this method and their retention times were examined. The positive correlation of the retention time with log (molecular mass) and log sigma (hydrophobicity of amino acids) but not with the isoelectric point, was observed. Based on these results, the mechanism underlying the interaction of protein-SDS complexes with ceramic hydroxyapatite was discussed.
