Summary
1. Specific sorbents for the affinity chromatography of pepsin on hexamethylenediamine-Sepharose using valine peptides differing by the acyl groups and configurations of the valine residue have been synthesized.
2. The sorbents investigated are effective in the purification of pepsin with a low specific activity when 30–40 mg of protein is deposited on 1 ml of resin, a fourfold purification of the enzyme being achieved.
