The systematic and in-depth study of phosphoproteome rely on highly reproducible and specific phosphopeptide enrichment methods. At present, a variety of enrichment methods have been developed based on different principles, and these methods often display different selectivity and specificity. It is therefore very important to select the most suitable enrichment method according to different research purposes. This review summarized the phosphopeptide enrichment based on affinity chromatography, immunoprecipitation, chemical derivatization, chromatography and other newly developed methods. The advantages and disadvantages of these methods, as well as the related optimization and improvement strategies, were discussed in detail. In addition, we also briefly summarized the progress of the combination of phosphopeptide enrichment and fractionation methods developed in recent years.

OBJECTIVETo establish a method to test citrinin (CIT) in monascus products by immuno-affinity chromatography (IAC)-high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and to detect the content of CIT in monascus products in Fujian province.
METHODSIAC-HPLC was applied to detect the CIT content in monascus products. The conditions to use HPLC were as follows: C(18) reversed-phase chromatographic column, 150.0 mm×4.6mm×3 µm; mobile phase: the volume ratio of acetonitrile and 0.1% phosphoric acid solution at 65:35; isocratic elution; column temperature: 28°C; flow velocity: 0.8 ml/min; fluorescence detector, excitation wavelength (λ(ex)) was 331 nm and emission wavelength (λ(em)) was 500 nm. The standard curved was established by the linear regression of peak area (Y) to CIT content (X, ng/ml). The accuracy and precision of the method would then be verified. And 32 kinds of monascus products were determined and their color values were compared by this method.
RESULTThe standard curve established in this study was Y = 4634.8X-136.42, r = 1.000; whose limits of detection was 20 µg/kg and the limits of qualification was 64 µg/kg. In the range between 200 and 800 µg/kg, the standard recovery rate was 98.9% - 110.0% (n = 3), and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was 0.51% - 1.76%. Out of the 32 samples, CIT was detected from 11 samples of monascus rice, 9 samples of monascus powder and 5 samples of monascus pigments, the content was around 0.212 - 14.500 mg/kg. 4 out of 7 functional monascus samples were detected out CIT, whose content at 0.142 - 0.275 mg/kg.
CONCLUSIONThe method to detect CIT in monascus products by IAC-HPLC has been established.

OBJECTIVETo prepare immunoaffinity column of zearalenone.
METHODSThe zearalenone immunoaffinity column (IAC) was prepared by coupling CNBr-activated Sepharose 4 Fast Flow (4FF) with the anti-zearalenone monoclonal antibody which was purified by caprylic acid-ammonium sulfate method. The coupling reaction was identified by UV-absorbance measurements, and the IAC prepared was evaluated by indirect-competition ELISA and HPLC.
RESULTSThe column capacity was determined to be 0.40 microg when using 0.5 ml of CNBr activated Sepharose 4FF and 350 microg of purified anti-zearalenone monoclonal antibody. The mean true recoveries were in the range 76.33% - 90.10% and RSD was 6.68% - 10.93% at levels of 60 microg/kg - 300 microg/kg. 30 samples of wheat and maize were detected by the anti-ZEN IAC produced by the laboratory, 17 samples were observed to be contaminated in a comparable range from 31.33 microg/kg - 377.84 microg/kg. Detection limit based on a signal-to-noise ratio 3:1 was 10. 00 microg/kg for ZEN in wheat and maize.
CONCLUSIONIAC, a simple separating method which is used in ZEN extraction from cereals, is able to purify and condense ZEN in one step. The cost of detection can be lowered down because the IAC developed is hopefully to substitute the imported IAC.

As a novel bioaffinity chromatography technique, cell membrane chromatography (CMC) was first established by Professor He in 1996, with which combined high performance liquid chromatography, cytobiology, and receptor pharmacology. The cell membrane stationary phase (CMSP) consists of porous silica coated with active cell membranes. By immersing silica into a suspension of cell membranes, the whole surface of silica was covered by the cell membranes. In CMC, the interaction of drugs or compounds with the immobilized cell membrane or its receptors is investigated using liquid chromatography. In general, with the aim to provide scientific foundation for further development and application, this paper mainly focuses on the characteristics of the cell membrane stationary phase (CMSP), the CMC analytical system, and its applications in traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) about CMC. With the development of CMC, the breakthrough progress of it in studying active components of TCMs field is expectant.

Quantitative specific detection of Staphylococcus aureus is based on recombinant lysostaphin and ATP bioluminescence. To produce recombinant lysostaphin, the lysostaphin gene was chemically synthesized and inserted it into prokaryotic expression vector pQE30, and the resulting expression plasmid pQE30-Lys was transformed into E. coli M15 for expressing lysostaphin with IPTG induction. The recombinant protein was purified by Ni(2+)-NTA affinity chromatography. Staphylococcus aureus was detected by the recombinant lysostaphin with ATP bioluminescence, and plate count method. The results of the two methods were compared. The recombinant lysostaphin was successfully expressed, and a method of quantitative specific detection of S. aureus has been established, which showed a significant linear correlation with the colony counting. The detection method developed has good perspective to quantify S. aureus.

BACKGROUNDThe molecular mechanisms underlying the endometriosis are still not completely understood. In order to test the hypothesis that the approaches in phosphoproteomics might contribute to the identification of key biomarkers to assess disease pathogenesis and drug targets, we carried out a phosphoproteomics analysis of human endometrium.
METHODSA large-scale differential phosphoproteome analysis, using peptide enrichment of titanium dioxide purify and sequential elution from immobilized metal affinity chromatography with linear trap quadrupole-tandem mass spectrometry, was performed in endometrium tissues from 8 women with or without endometriosis.
RESULTSThe phosphorylation profiling of endometrium from endometriosis patients had been obtained, and found that identified 516 proteins were modified at phosphorylation level during endometriosis. Gene ontology annotation analysis showed that these proteins were enriched in cellular processes of binding and catalytic activity. Further pathway analysis showed that ribosome pathway and focal adhesion pathway were the top two pathways, which might be deregulated during the development of endometriosis.
CONCLUSIONSThat large-scale phosphoproteome quantification has been successfully identified in endometrium tissues of women with or without endometriosis will provide new insights to understand the molecular mechanisms of the development of endometriosis.

Study on pharmacodynamic material basis of traditional Chinese medicines is one of the key issues for the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine. Having introduced the monoclonal antibody technology into the study on pharmacodynamic material basis of traditional Chinese medicines, the author prepared the immunoaffinity chromatography column by using monoclonal antibodies in active components of traditional Chinese medicines, so as to selectively knock out the component from herbs or traditional Chinese medicine compounds, while preserving all of the other components and keeping their amount and ratio unchanged. A comparative study on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics was made to explicitly reveal the correlation between the component and the main purpose of traditional Chinese medicines and compounds. The analysis on pharmacodynamic material basis of traditional Chinese medicines by using specific knockout technology with monoclonal antibodies is a new method for study pharmacodynamic material basis in line with the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicines. Its results can not only help study material basis from a new perspective, but also help find the modern scientific significance in single herb or among compounds of traditional Chinese medicines.

In search of the optimal preparation method for large-scale purification of human plasma fibronectin, we adopted affinity chromatography with gelatin and the Sepharose 4B activated with cyanogen bromide to purify fibronectin from type "C" plasma of healthy males, and scanned the best method under the conditions of different amount of plasma loading and different residence time in column. In a given column volume of gelatin, the absorbent was related with the plasma residence time in column and the total amount of plasma loaded. As a result, the optimal loading amount of plasma is 150 ml, and the residence time is 20 minutes. The preparation method, herein, has been proved to require small amount of plasma and yield large amount of fibronectin.

Lysostaphin, a specific endopeptidase enzyme derived from Staphylococcus aureus, is a bactericidal agent against Staphylococcus and difficult to be drug-resistant. This study established the monoclonal antibody affinity chromatography to obtain lysostaphin of high purity for drug-use standard. The purified Lysostaphin was of > 95% purity and its recovery rate more than 90%. Moreover, the affinity column kept its efficiency of purification invariable after more than 30 times repeat. Also, the dye release assay validated that the purified lysostaphin had significant bactericidal activity. This method was simple and of high efficacy for the lysostaphin purification and showed its potency in commercial production.
