  "term": "Protein complex purification",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The isolation of a specific multi-protein assembly from a mixture of other cellular components, while maintaining its structural integrity and biological activity. This process typically involves a series of chromatographic steps, affinity purification, or immunoprecipitation. The goal is to obtain a sample pure enough for structural or functional characterization.",
