Study of conformational effects of recombinant interferon gamma adsorbed on a non-porous reversed-phase silica support.

Reversed-phase chromatography is a powerful method for separating recombinant interferon gamma and one of its analogues differing only by a single amino acid residue. Structural differences of the proteins explain this separation ability as demonstrated from adsorption studies on a non-porous reversed-phase support. To reveal the structural differences occurring in the adsorbed state, two different and independent methods were employed.
