CE detection of N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-carbodiimide/N-hydroxysuccinimide-coupled proteins after homo- and hetero-crosslinking reactions
Protein protein conjugates formed by carbodiimide crosslinking reactions have been analyzed for the first time using CE Lysozyme and BSA were chosen as model proteins to study the efficacy of N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethylcarbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide as closslinkers Detection of the molecular mass increase was checked by SDS-PAGE Commercially available, PVA-coated capillaries showed appropriate selection, while phospho-deactivated and dynamic PVA-coated capillaries did not give suitable resolution. CE was found to be an efficient tool to characterize homo- (lysozyme lysozyme) and hetero-(lysozyme BSA) protein coupling by suitable variations of electrophoretic mobilities.
