Abstract

Processes for isolating and purifying granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) from a G-CSF producing microorganism are disclosed. The simplified processes include steps of lysing the microorganism and separating insoluble material containing G-CSF from soluble proteinaceous material; extracting the material with deoxycholate (optionally); solubilizing and oxidizing the G-CSF in the presence of a denaturant solubilizing agent and an oxidizing agent; removing the denaturant solubilizing agent from the G-CSF; subjecting the G-CSF to ion exchange chromatography; and recovering the purified G-CSF; yet excludes other cumbersome purification steps.
