ABSTRACT:
A method for the solubilization and naturation of somatotropin from refractile bodies produced by r-DNA technology wherein the refractile bodies are dissolved in an aqueous solution comprising a chaotropic agent such as urea or guanidine hydrochloride and a soluble surfactant such as sodium dodecylsulfate. The solubilized protein is exposed to mild oxidation for a time sufficient to allow the protein to form disulfide bonds and refold to its native conformation. The presence of the surfactant suppresses the formation of somatotropin dimers and aggregates and results in higher yields of the desirable monomeric form of the protein.
