Plasmid adsorption to anion-exchange matrices: Comments on plasmid recovery

Tiainen, Peter LU ; Galaev, Igor LU and Larsson, Per-Olof LU (2007) In Biotechnology Journal 2(6). p.726-735
Abstract
A number of anion-exchange adsorbents were constructed, employing nonporous silica fibers, and examined with the aim of describing factors that influence desorption and recovery of plasmid DNA (pDNA). The fibers were provided with ligands via adsorption of the polymeric amines poly(ethyleneimine) or chitosan, or via graft-polymerization of primary, tertiary, or quaternary amine monomers to vinyl-silanized fibers. Several adsorbents showed an almost irreversible plasmid binding. It was suggested that important factors affecting the DNA releasing ability are (i) type of amine ligand used (primary amines bind plasmids the strongest), (ii) the structure of the nucleic acid (supercoiled pDNA may bind stronger than linear genomic DNA), (iii)...

Several adsorbents showed an almost irreversible plasmid binding. It was suggested that important factors affecting the DNA releasing ability are (i) type of amine ligand used (primary amines bind plasmids the strongest), (ii) the structure of the nucleic acid (supercoiled pDNA may bind stronger than linear genomic DNA), (iii) shift of ligand pKa (due to the proximity of highly charged pDNA), and (iv) the solid support itself (steric factors may lead to kinetically stable complexes). The last factor was derived from several comparisons between support-bound ligand and free soluble ligand. It was thus observed that polyelectrolyte complexes associated with a surface were much more difficult to dissociate than the equivalent soluble complexes. (Less)
