New methods for the refolding of recombinant granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) from inclusion bodies are disclosed. The methods comprise two refolding steps. In particular, the methods comprise the solubilising of G-CSF with a solubilising agent, the oxidative refolding (first refolding step) of G-CSF in the presence of the solubilising agent and an oxidizing agent, the efficient removal of the solubilising agent, and a second refolding step to complete the folding of G-CSF in the absence of the solubilising agent. Various methods are described for the efficient removal of the solubilising agent from partially refolded G-CSF. |
