Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for extracting a hydrophilic recombinant protein from a host expressing a hydrophilic recombinant protein. The method includes: a lysate acquisition step in which a dissolving solvent is added to the host expressing a hydrophilic recombinant protein so as to obtain a host cell lysate; and a step in which a diluting solvent is added to the host cell lysate obtained in the lysate acquisition step, an insoluble substance is separated from the obtained dilution, and a supernatant containing the hydrophilic recombinant protein is collected. The hydrophilic recombinant protein has a hydropathy index of 0 or less. The dissolving solvent is an aprotic polar solvent. The diluting solvent is an aqueous solvent.

Claims (26)

1 . A method for extracting a hydrophilic recombinant protein from a host expressing a hydrophilic recombinant protein,

the method comprising:
