A method for recovering a purified 52,000 dalton fraction of human pancreatic cholesterol esterase is disclosed. The 52,000 dalton fraction of human pancreatic cholesterol esterase is purified by passing a solution having a pH of about 8.2 which contains two or more fractions of human pancreatic cholesterol esterase including the 52,000 dalton fraction over DEAE-cellulose to produce an effluent containing said 52,000 dalton fraction. Since the 52,000 dalton fraction of the esterase does not bind to the DEAE-cellulose whereas the other esterase fractions do bind to the DEAE-cellulose, the 52,000 dalton fraction is then collected in the effluent. The method can be further carried out by passing the purified 52,000 dalton fraction over both hydroxyapatite and heparin-Sepharose to obtain a homogeneous solution of the 52,000 dalton fraction.
A method for recovering a purified 52,000 dalton molecular weight fraction of a human pancreatic cholesterol esterase comprising passing a solution having a pH of about 8.2 and containing two or more molecular weight fractions of human pancreatic cholesterol esterase including a 52,000 dalton molecular weight fraction over DEAE-cellulose to produce and effluent containing said 52,000 dalton fraction of the esterase, said 52,000 dalton fraction of the esterase not binding to the DEAE-cellulose and the other esterase fractions binding to the DEAE-cellulose, and collecting the 52,000 molecular weight dalton fraction of human pancreatic cholesterol esterase in the effluent.
