Abstract: Provided are methods of refolding and purifying lipoproteins on a chromatography column. In particular methods of refolding ApoL1 polypeptides using a hydrophobic interaction column (HIC). The present invention provides methods for the purification of an active form of a human lipoprotein, such as ApoL1. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for renaturing an inclusion body of proteins expressed in a large quantity in E. coli into an active form using a hydrophobic interaction column and removal of impurities, e.g., endotoxins.

Abstract: Methods for purifying adenoviruses from a contaminated sample using a hydroxyapatite medium are provided. Sodium chloride concentrations present in buffers used throughout the method are at least 150 mM to prevent the adenovirus from irreversibly binding to the hydroxyapatite. Levels of contaminants and empty adenovirus capsids from samples purified by conventional purification techniques are further reduced to provide a highly pure adenovirus preparation.
