Modification of hemoglobin using inositol tetrakisphosphate (IP(4)) can improve the oxygen affinity of hemoglubin. Phytase was extracted from wheat bran and purified by ammonium sulphate fractionation, followed by Sephadex G-50 gel filtration and Mono Q chromatography. The purified
phytase
was used for hydrolysis of phytic acid under controled conditions. IP(4), as a major composition of the hydrolysate, was further purified on resin 714 column. The purified IP(4) was oxidized by periodate to obtain dialdehyde-IP(4). By the reaction between the
aldehyde
group of IP(4) derivative and the amino group of porcine hemoglobin (pHb), pHb-IP(4) conjugate was formed and was found to have better ability of O(2) binding and releasing than the native hemoglobin.
