The present invention relates to a composition and a kit for removing lipopolysaccharide (LPS), comprising a polypeptide having binding ability to lipopolysaccharide or a salt substitute thereof as an active ingredient, and a method for removing lipopolysaccharide. The polypeptide or a salt substitute thereof according to the present invention has very excellent binding ability with lipopolysaccharide, and the efficiency of removing lipopolysaccharide during a purification process in a protein production process using E. coli is high, such that the lipopolysaccharide removal efficiency can be maximized.

Selectively controllable cleavable linkers include electrochemically-cleavable linkers, photolabile linkers, thermolabile linkers, chemically-labile linkers, and enzymatically-cleavable linkers. Selective cleavage of individual linkers may be controlled by changing local conditions. Local conditions may be changed by activating electrodes in proximity to the linkers, exposing the linkers to light, heating the linkers, or applying chemicals. Selective cleaving of enzymatically-cleavable linkers may be controlled by designing the sequences of different sets of the individual linkers to respond to different enzymes. Cleavable linkers may be used to attach polymers to a solid substrate. Selective cleavage of the linkers enables release of specific polymers from the solid substrate. Cleavable linkers may also be used to attach protecting groups to the ends of growing polymers. The protecting groups may be selectively removed by cleavage of the linkers to enable growth of specific polymers.

Disclosed is a lipophilic agent comprising a triazine core having lipophilic groups for organic synthesis. The lipophilic agent soluble in one system of solvent(s) wherein the lipophilic agent is participated in a chemical reaction but insoluble by adding a miscible poor solvent to change solution composition after the reaction completes. The lipophilic agent facilitates process improvement wherein practical operation only involves mixing with reactants in solution followed by precipitating with change of solution composition followed by filtering to obtain the precipitated solid, simplifying the purification by isolating the desired solid. The operation is reproducible along the progress in a multi-step synthesis, allowing pure intermediates and pure product as a solid to be rapidly obtained with ease and certainty. This invention can thus accelerate research and development of pharmaceutical biomolecules, representing a tremendous step forward for boosting productivity and greening chemical industry.
