Isoelectric Focusing of Human Liver
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. Isoelectric focusing of human liver alkaline phosphatase in a sucrose density gradient with LKB Ampholine as carrier ampholytes is described. 2. Problems due to the chelating properties of the ampholytes and the pH gradient were examined. 3. A reactivation procedure to counter these effects was devised that can probably be used for other alkaline phosphatases. 4. The isoelectric point of human liver alkaline phosphatase was found to be pH3.9.

Isoelectric Focusing and PCR-RFLP Joined Techniques for Alpha1-antitrypsin Deficiency Detection
53 persons suspected to alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency detection (AATD) were investigated for ZZ, MZ, ZS, SS, and MS alleles analysis by serum protein electrophoresis (SPE), measurement of trypsin inhibiting capacity (TIC), isoelectric focusing (IEF), polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and IEF/PCR-RFLP techniques. The result clearly shows by using SPE and TIC techniques only 35.85 % and 50.08% of ...
متن کاملA Simpler and Faster Version of Two-Dimensional Gel Electrophoresis Using Vertical, Mini SDS-PAGE Apparatus
We have modified one of the most useful methods of protein separation; namely, two dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). This modified version of 2-DE is not only simpler and easier but also faster than all the currently available methods. In this method, isoelectric focusing is carried out in the first dimension using a vertical sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrop...
متن کاملElevated activity and increased mannose-6-phosphate in the carbohydrate moiety of cathepsin D from human hepatoma.
A significant elevation of cathepsin D activity was observed in six human hepatoma tissues as compared to 12 normal human livers. In isoelectric focusing experiments, cathepsin D purified from normal liver exhibited three different forms, with isoelectric points of 5.6, 6.1, and 6.7, while cathepsin D purified from hepatoma contained another five to six more acidic forms in addition to the form...
متن کاملCharacterization of Nucleoprotein Extracted from Human Influenza A Virus Cultured in Two Different Cell Lines
Background and Aims: Influenza virus nucleoprotein (NP) has the capacity to be used as subunit vaccine, but little is known about the impact of different cultures on its structure. In the present study we aimed to evaluate and compare the Isoelectric focusing (IEF) property of extracted viral nucleoproteins derived from Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line and embryonated chicken eggs (EC...
متن کاملCathepsin D. Purification of isoenzymes from human and chicken liver.
1. The Barrett (1967) assay for cathepsin D was slightly modified. 2. The enzyme was purified from liver of man and chicken by a procedure involving autolysis, acetone fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography and isoelectric focusing. 3. Several isoenzymes of cathepsin D were resolved in the isoelectric-focusing step, and three major forms, alpha,beta and gamma, were distinguished for each sp...
