Zone electrophoresis of hypophyseal growth hormone (somatotropin) on starch.
Growth hormone preparations were obtained by methods previously described (1, 3) from the anterior lobes of ox pituitary glands. The biological activity of these preparations was estimated by the tibia test (5) in hypophysectomized rats. Electrophoretic experiments were carried out in a cold room at 3”. The technique of zone electrophoresis is a modification of the method of Kunkel and Slater (...
متن کاملUltracentrifugation of hypophyseal growth hormone.
Sedimentation velocity was measured in a Spinco ultracentrifuge’ operating at 165,000 X g. The hormone solutions (0.5 per cent) were prepared with borate buffer of pH 9.7 or saline at pH 9.1. Table I presents a typical run in a borate buffer; the sedimentation velocity constant was calculated by the procedure described by Svedberg and Pedersen (3). It may be noted that the individual values of ...
متن کاملSedimentation behavior of hypophyseal growth hormone.
In a previous publication, it was reported that solution of the hypophyseal growth hormone in acetate buffers results in an increment of its intrinsic viscosity with an accompanying increase of molecular weight (1). Later, Smith et al. (2) confirmed these observations in ultracentrifugal studies. The purpose of this present investigation has been to study the sedimentation behavior of the hormo...
متن کاملThe Hypophyseal Growth Hormone, Nature and Actions
many formulae and figures. Its many chapter subheadings give the book its rather terse, outline form. A discussion of methods of isolation, characterization, and determination of purity is followed by successive chapters dealing with reaction rates as a function of substrate concentration, inhibitor action, temperature, and pH. Thermodynamic concepts are well developed in chapters on energetics...
متن کاملReceptors for somatotropin (growth hormone) and prolactin.
Pituitary somatotropin (growth hormone) and prolactin are two related protein hormones produced by the pituitary gland. Both contain single polypeptide chains of 190-200 amino acid residues (Wallis, 1978). In mammals, prolactin acts primarily on the mammary glands, promoting mammary growth and lactation; in many species it also has direct effects on the gonads and possibly other organs (Horrobi...
