    Abstract:
    A simple strategy has been developed to synthesize hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanoparticles (NPs) in a simulated body fluid (SBF). The HAP NPs have an average diameter of 50nm and present porous structure. By taking advantage of surface hydroxyl groups, the HAP NPs are further modified with iminodiacetic acid (IDA), followed by chelating Ni(2+) ions. The HAP/IDA-Ni(2+) NPs as novel adsorbent can capture directly histidine-tagged (His-tagged) proteins from the mixture of lysed cells without sample pretreatment. Results indicated that the HAP/IDA-Ni(2+) NPs present negligible nonspecific adsorption and high protein binding ability, and their specificity and affinity toward His-tagged proteins can remain after 5 times of recycling. The HAP/IDA-Ni(2+) NPs are especially suitable for purification of His-tagged proteins with low molecule weight.
