Human C-reactive protein (CRP), a typical acute-phase protein, increases about hundreds-fold in concentration in response to infection, inflammation or tissue injury.<BR>CRP was first described by Tillet and Francis in 1930 as a serum protein capable of precipitating pneumococcal C-polysaccharide where phosphorylcholine (PC) was identified later to be a ligand. Clinical and biological aspects, especially immunological ones, of human CRP have been studied. And some of them have been ascribed to its capacity of ligand-binding with PC calcium-dependently. While type 4 pneumococcal polysaccharide which lacks phosphate and choline has been pointed out to be able to bind human CRP in calcium-dependent manner, ligands other than PC should be considered besides PC.<BR>We find specific affinity chromatography bearing new ligand of negatively-charged aminocaproic acid which binds human CRP calcium-dependently (buffer ; 0.15 M NaCl, 0.02 M Tris, 0.01 M CaCl<SUB>2</SUB>, 0.01 M NaN<SUB>3</SUB>, pH 7.8, room temp.), being almost comparable to PC-affinity chromatography. In addition, another specific ligand of positively-charged aminohexyl-agarose is found to bind human CRP calcium-independently (buffer; 0.09 M NaCl, 0.01 M Tris, pH 7.4, room temp.) . These new ligands may provide simple model to understand human CRP.<BR>1) Tillet, W.S., Francis, T. Jr.: Serological reactions in pneumonia with a non-protein somatic fraction of pneumococcus. J.
