Abstract
A new HPLC-SEC column, Ultrastyragel 500 Å, has been assayed in order to check the separation between gramicidin A and phosphatidylcholine in tetrahydrofuran. The good resolution of both compounds has allowed the quantitation of lipid-polypeptide interaction in terms of the binding ratio parameter, BR. A BR value of 3.6 moles of phosphatidylcholine per mole of gramicidin A has been obtained for a 0.1 % (w/v) phosphatidylcholine solution as eluent. The suitability of this support for studies on lipid-polypeptide interactions in non-aqueous solvents is demonstrated.
