The thermal behavior of a series of standard proteins in hydrophobic interaction chromatography on a previously developed weakly hydrophobic ether-bonded phase column has been studied. Depending on the temperature and protein, conformational changes can occur in the chromatographic system. Methods for recognizing these conformational effects are presented, including retention and peak width variations with temperature, andZvalues (the slope of the plot of logk′ vs. log %Bsolvent. TheZvalue is shown to be a general index characterizing protein retention as a function of salt concentration. In addition, on-line UV spectroscopic analysis, (absorbance ratios and second derivative spectroscopy) with a photodiode array detector, is shown to corroborate chromatographic trends. Lysozyme maintains a stable conformation over the temperature range 10–40°C, whereas β-lactoglobulin A has a conformational transition between 25°C and 40°C. Calcium-depleted α-lactalbumin, a rather labile species, maintains a stable conformation up toca. 20°C, and then undergoes structural changes. Finally, cytochromecappears to be relatively stable up toca. 65°C. Since conformational changes for this protein occur atca. 35°C on more hydrophobic phases, the extent of hydrophobicity of the stationary phase is important for maintenance of the native state. Based on this work, hydrophobic-interaction chromatography at sub-ambient temperatures appears promising.
