The estimation of polypeptide chain molecular weights by gel filtration in 6 M guanidine hydrochloride.
Gel filtration of reduced protein polypeptide chains in 6 M guanidine hydrochloride has been evaluated as a means of estimating protein or protein subunit molecular weights as suggested by Davison (Science, 161, 906 (1968)). As a gel filtration medium, 6% agarose permits useful molecular weight estimates between the extreme limits of 80,000 and 1,000. Provided weight rather than volume is used ...
متن کاملSubunits of luteinizing hormone from human pituitary glands.
Three species of luteinizing hormone (LH) designated as LH-A, -B, and -C, and containing 9, 8, and 4 NIH-LH-Sl units per mg were isolated from human pituitary glands by isoelectric focusing. The LH-A, -B, and -C each sedimented as a single boundary in the ultracentrifuge with ~20,~ of 2.34, 2.24, and 2.70 S, respectively. Amino acid analyses of LH-A, -B, and -C were very similar, although minor...
متن کاملOrexin-B modulates luteinizing hormone and growth hormone secretion from porcine pituitary cells in culture.
To test the hypothesis that orexin-B acts directly on the anterior pituitary to regulate LH and growth hormone (GH) secretion, anterior pituitary cells from prepuberal gilts were studied in primary culture. On day 4 of culture, 10(5) cells/well were challenged with 0.1, 10 or 1000 nM GnRH; 10, 100 or 1000 nM [Ala15]-hGRF-(1-29)NH2 or 0.1, 1, 10 or 100 nM, orexin-B individually or in combination...
متن کاملHeterogeneity of gonadotropins and levels of uncombined luteinizing hormone subunits in pituitaries of cryptorchid rams.
Pituitaries were collected from intact rams and rams that had been rendered bilaterally cryptorchid by surgery to examine the effects of cryptorchidism on gonadotropin heterogeneity, levels of uncombined luteinizing hormone (LH) subunits, and the apparent molecular sizes of LH and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Cryptorchid rams had higher pituitary contents of LH and FSH as well as reduced...
متن کاملSingle step purification of ovine luteinizing hormone by affinity chromatography.
Affinity chromatography has been applied to the problem of specifically removing luteinizing hormone from sera used to supplement tissue culture media. Horse or fetal calf sera, passed through a column of an anti-luteinizing hormone immunoglobulin fraction linked covalently to agarose, were specifically depleted in their content of luteinizing hormone as seen by radioimmunoassay and by their ef...
