Abstract
An increasing demand for the development of immunoglobin Y (IgY) illustrates the necessity of the component analysis in the process of conduction and quality control. This study investigated the proteomic changes in crude IgY extracts and purified IgY products obtained by sequential polyethylene glycol precipitation (PEG) of egg yolks followed by human mycoplasma protein-based affinity chromatography compared with intact egg yolks. After confirming the extraction efficiency and purity by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis, liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was performed with samples including fresh yolk, IgY extracted product and purified product. A total of 348 proteins were identified, with 36 proteins deleted and 209 newly detected proteins in the purified product compared to the intact egg yolk. The significantly decreased proteins mainly included phosvitin, albumin, and apolipoprotein B whereas the significantly increased proteins were mainly IgY-related proteins. GO analysis showed that the purified IgY product had ATPase activity and purine ribonucleoside triphosphate binding activity, and was mainly involved in purine and nucleic acid metabolism. This study will inevitably fasten the commercial application of IgY antibodies and is of greater significance for promotion, development and approval for new antibody derived drug products.
