Abstract[English]
The present invention relates to a method for the purification of immunoglobulins comprising N- terminal glutamine. In particular, the method comprises an incubation step embedded in a sequence of chromatographic methods comprising a capture step, an intermediate chromatography step, and a polishing step. The implementation of an incubation step embedded in the sequence of chromatographic purification methods promotes the conversion of N-terminal glutamine to pyro glutamate, thereby reducing the amount of N-terminal glutamine to be depleted by cation exchange chromatography while overall product yield is increased. In addition, the incubation may be conducted prior or following the intermediate chromatography step.[French]
La présente invention concerne un procédé de purification d'immunoglobulines comprenant de la glutamine à extrémité N-terminale. En particulier, le procédé comprend une étape d'incubation incorporée dans une séquence de procédés chromatographiques comprenant une étape de capture, une étape de chromatographie intermédiaire et une étape de polissage. La mise en oeuvre d'une étape d'incubation incorporée dans la séquence de procédés de purification chromatographique favorise la conversion de glutamine à extrémité N-terminale en pyro glutamate, ce qui permet de réduire la quantité de glutamine à extrémité N-terminale à appauvrir par chromatographie d'échange de cations tout en augmentant le rendement global du produit. De plus, l'incubation peut être effectuée avant ou après l'étape de chromatographie intermédiaire.
