Molecular-sieve chromatography and electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels.

چکیده
1. The absolute electrophoretic mobilities of eight proteins have been measured at pH8.76, I 0.05, in polyacrylamide gels of 20 different compositions at 10 degrees C. 2. The partition coefficients of these proteins have been determined chromatographically under the same conditions by using columns of granulated polyacrylamide gel prepared simultaneously. 3. The electrophoretic mobilities are an exponential function of the gel concentrations when the latter are corrected for water uptake. The constants of this function have been determined by curvefitting methods. They have been shown to be related to the free solution mobility and to the mean molecular radius respectively. 4. The reduced mobilities have been shown to be a linear function of the partition coefficients by statistical analyses. 5. The physical significance of the relation between electrophoretic mobility and chromatographic phase distribution in gel media is discussed in the context of these results.

Purification of human C5a des arg by immunoadsorbent and molecular sieve chromatography.
Human C5a des arg was isolated from complement-activated serum by immunoadsorption followed by Sephadex G-75 chromatography. C5a des arg obtained by this 2-step procedure was shown to be immunologically identical to C5a des arg purified by a conventional multi-step method, homogeneous on SDS-polyacrylamide gels, and biologically active. Although this technique yields approximately the same amou...
متن کاملAttachment of human C5a des Arg to its cochemotaxin is required for maximum expression of chemotactic activity.
The chemotactic activity of human C5a des Arg is enhanced significantly by an anionic polypeptide (cochemotaxin) in normal human serum and plasma. We have found that the cochemotaxin attaches to the oligosaccharide chain of native C5a des Arg to form a complex with potent chemotactic activity for human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Although capable of enhancing the chemotactic activity of nativ...
متن کاملIsolation of herpes simplex virus regulatory protein ICP4 as a homodimeric complex.
The viral polypeptide ICP4 (or Vmw175) is synthesized during the immediate early phase of infection by herpes simplex virus and regulates the transcription of delayed early and late viral genes. We obtained a partially purified preparation of soluble ICP4 under nondenaturing conditions. Physical constants for native ICP4 were empirically determined by molecular sieve chromatography and sucrose ...
متن کاملPurification and some physicochemical properties of staphylococcal enterotoxin E.
Enterotoxin E produced by Stu~hyZococcus aureus strain FRI (Food Research Institute)-326 was purified by cation exchange chromatography on carboxymethylcellulose, gel tiltration through superfine Sephadex G-75, and gel filtration in 6 M urea with superfine Sephadex G-75. The purified toxin appears to be nearly homogeneous by paper, starch gel, and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and double g...
متن کاملUsing a Temperature Gradient against the Time in Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis May Eliminate the Need for Stacking Gels
Background and Objectives: Making stacking gels for polyacrylamide gels in the laboratory by conventional methods is laborious and time consuming. Considering the role of temperature in polyacrylamide gels with respect to electrical resistance and viscosity, we assumed that decreasing the temperature would cause an increase in electrical resistance and viscosity. Ultimately, a downward tempera...
متن کاملAn epimerase-reductase in L-fucose synthesis.
The first committed enzyme in GDP-L-fucose formation from GDP-D-mannose is GDP-D-mannose 4,6-dehydratase, which forms GDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-mannose. The uncertain enzymatic steps beyond this point were examined in this study. Assays were developed for the epimerase and reductase activities which the putative pathway would predict. A protein was isolated exhibiting homogeneity by several criteria...
