3,17 ß-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase has been enriched and purified from cytosol o f Strepto­ myces hydrogenans. After ammonium sulfate precipitation and filtration on Sephadex G-100 the enzyme was finally purified by preparative gel electrophoresis and DEAE-Sephadex A-50 chro­ matography. Polyaciylam ide gel electrophoresis in the presence o f sodium dodecylsulfate gave a single band o f mobili...

The sodiumand potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Naf + K+)-ATPase was partially purified from a microsomal fraction of whole rabbit brain, homogenized in a deoxycholate buffer. Suspension and separation by flotation of the resulting lipoproteins in a linear gradient of potassium iodide formed the basis of a rapid preparative technique, whereby the enzyme-containing lipoproteins were ...

The sedimentation coefficients of dsRNA segments of bovine rotavirus were determined in the analytical ultracentrifuge. The eleven segments were separated by preparative gel electrophoresis, and isolated by elution from gel pieces. The RNA was labelled by the intercalating fluorescent dye ethidium bromide at a ratio bound dye per base pair between 0.003 to 0.018. The analytical ultracentrifuge ...

A human serum albumin and Thymosin α1 (HSA-Tα1) fusion protein was designed and over-expressed in Pichia pastoris. To purify the fusion protein, a new native preparative electrophoresis system that involved a modified device with a sample receiving chamber, and an assay method with Coomassie Blue G-250 tracing the collection of the protein of interest. In this device, two gels were run in paral...

We have used the nonionic detergent octyl-O-D-glucopyranoside in combination with sodium dodecyl sulfate to isolate two novel Photosystem I (PSI) complexes from spinach (Spinacea oleracea L.) thylakoid membranes. These complexes have been characterized as to their spectral properties, content of PSI reaction center chlorophyll P7-, and protein composition. PSI-B, purified from solubilized membr...

Three fractions of rye-grass (Lolium perenne) pollen extract have been isolated by preparative isoelectric focusing (i.e.f.) and characterized in terms of physicochemical and immunochemical properties. The purified components were designated 'R7' and 'R14' on the basis of their positions in relation to other rye-grass pollen extract components on SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and their...
