Purification of human immunoglobulin M by affinity chromatography on protamine-Sepharose.

Human IgM has been isolated from plasma by a simple procedure in high yield. The first step was adsorption to protamine-Sepharose and elution by increasing the ionic strength with NaCl. This was followed by two gel filtration steps resulting in a 98% pure IgM in about 30% yield. A somewhat modified procedure could also be used for purification of IgM from Cohn fraction II + III. The purified IgM was found to have a sedimentation constant in agreement with reported values. In immunoelectrophoresis and isoelectric focusing, purified IgM showed the same behaviour as IgM in plasma. Different fragments of IgM were tested for binding to the protamine-Sepharose adsorbent. IgM and Fab were not bound unlike (FC)5, indicating that the sites responsible for binding are located in the Fc part and that several Fc parts are necessary for sufficiently strong binding for adsorption.
