Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Farnesyl pyrophosphate synthetase (EC 2.5.1.1) from chicken liver, pig liver, and yeast has been purified to homogeneity in a single chromatographic step by affinity chromatography. The affinity ligand, geranylmethylphosphonophosphate, is linked to Affi-Gel 10 through the phosphonophosphate moiety. The affinity gel is stable chemically and the internal phosphonophosphate linkage is not hydrolyzed by nonspecific phosphatases. A single column has been used repeatedly for over a year with no degradation in its performance. A typical purification only requires 2 days and gives a 500- to 600-fold purification of enzyme from a crude ammonium sulfate precipitate.
