The refolding of the reduced/denatured insulin from bovine pancreas as the model protein was investigated with weak anion exchange chromatography(WAX) coupled with MALDI-TOF MS.The results indicated that the disulfide bonds almost cannot be formed correctly with the common mobile phase by WAX.However,with the urea gradient elution and in the presence of GSSG/ Cyst as the ratio 1:6 in the mobile phase employed,the disulfide exchange of reduced/denatured insulin can be accelerated resulting in forming the correct three disulfide bonds.The protein refolding efficiency of reduced/denatured insulin can be increased from 3% to 34%.The effects of urea gradient and the oxidant and reductant groups,such as GSSG/GSH,Cyst,and GSSG/Cyst,on the forming the disulfide bonds of reduced/denatured insulin were investigated in detail.The results were further tested by the separation of the WAX fraction of reduced/denatured insulin with RPLC and MALDI-TOF MS.
