Abstract
The present invention relates to Fc binding proteins comprising one or more Fc binding domains wherein at least one domain comprises of an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 1-6 or 21. The invention further relates to affinity matrices comprising the Fc binding proteins of the invention. The invention also relates to a use of these Fc binding proteins or affinity matrices for affinity purification of immunoglobulins and to methods of affinity purification using the Fc binding proteins of the invention.
Claims13
1-20. (canceled)
A Fc binding protein comprising one or more domains, wherein each domain independently comprises an amino acid sequence as defined in any one of SEQ ID NOs:
- 7-10.
A method for affinity purification of a protein comprising an Fc domain, the method comprising:
- (a) contacting an affinity separation matrix comprising at least one Fc binding protein with a solution containing a protein comprising an Fc domain under conditions that permit binding of said at least one Fc binding protein to said protein comprising an Fc domain, wherein the at least one Fc binding protein comprises an amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOS:
- 7-15;
- and
- (b) eluting the bound protein comprising an Fc domain from said affinity purification matrix.
