Purification of cellobiohydrolase I fromTrichoderma reesei using monoclonal antibodies in an immunomatrix

  • Original Papers
  • Published:
Journal of Industrial Microbiology

Summary

The several components of the fungal cellulase system present practical problems in devising facile and efficient schemes for their purification. We report on a new single-step affinity chromatographic method for purification of cellobiohydrolase I ofTrichoderma reesei based on its selective absorption and elution using an immunomatrix constructed with CnBr-activated Sepharose 4B and monoclonal antibody specific for the enzyme. Isoenzymes of cellobiohydrolase I were purified directly from crude culture filtrate. The method is fast, simple, and of high resolution.
