General description

Hydrophobic ligands can serve as potentselective adsorbents. Both ω-aminoalkyl and alkyl agaroses can interact with the hydrophobic regions found in various proteins. The ω-aminoalkyl agarose product offered here consists of activated agarose with 1,6-diaminohexane covalently attached to one of its amine groups.

Application

ω-Aminohexyl–Agarose has been used in the conjugation of fatty acids with chain length from two carbons to 20 for fatty acyl beads pull-down experiments.
ω-aminohexyl–agarose has been used for coupling of serotype b-specific carbohydrate antigen (SbAg) of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans Y4 for isolation of anti-SbAg antibodies using protein chromatography.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ω-aminoalkyl-agaroses are used in chromatography. In these, the protein is retained by lipophilic association between the hydrocarbon side chains on the agarose and hydrophobic pockets in the protein.

Physical form

Suspension in 0.5 M NaCl containing preservative

Chromatography on hexyl-agarose resolved a partially purified cyclic GMP-activated phosphodiesterase from rat liver into two peaks of activity: the first was eluted with 0.5 M-KCl and was cyclic AMP-specific. The second was tightly bound to hexyl-agarose and was not eluted

The serotype b-specific carbohydrate antigen (SbAg) of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans Y4 is reported to be the O antigen of lipopolysaccharide, and the highest titers of serum antibody reactive with A. actinomycetemcomitans in early-onset periodontitis (EOP) patients bind SbAg. These high titers

This work investigated the potential use of an alternative adsorbent to anti-immunoglobulin E (IgE)-agarose for IgE selective adsorption therapy. A screening of several commercially available adsorbents (Concanavalin A, Lens culinaris[Lc], d-tryptophan, poly-l-lysine, and aminohexyl immobilized on agarose) was done through
