An electrophoretic transfer technique was developed for the specific identification of isozymes of starch debranching enzyme, alpha-amylase, and beta-amylase. Amylolytic enzymes are separated by native polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis and proteins in gels are electrophoretically transferred through starch-containing polyacrylamide gels. Each amylolytic enzyme degrades starch in the trans...

A high-affinity riboflavin -binding protein was isolated and characterized for the first time from pregnant-rat sera by affinity chromatography on a lumiflavin-agarose column. The purified protein was homogeneous by the criteria of analytical polyacrylamide-gel disc electrophoresis, gel-filtration chromatography on Sephadex G-100 and sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. I...
