A polypeptide solution of the present invention is a polypeptide solution in which a polypeptide derived from natural spider silk proteins is dissolved in a solvent. The solvent contains at least one selected from the following (i)-(ii): (i) DMSO with an inorganic salt; and (ii) DMF with an inorganic salt. Further, in the present invention, an artificial polypeptide fiber is obtained by: using the polypeptide solution as a dope solution; and extruding the dope solution from a spinneret into a desolvation bath so as to eliminate the solvent from the dope solution and form a fiber to produce an undrawn yarn. Moreover, in the present invention, a polypeptide is purified by subjecting the polypeptide solution to heat treatment and thereafter removing an undissolved substance therefrom. Thus, the present invention provides the polypeptide solution whose solute has high solubility and solvent itself is low cost, and that allows dissolution at high temperatures and has high safety: a method for producing an artificial polypeptide fiber: and a method for purifying a polypeptide.

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.
