The three proteins of the antigen 85 complex (85A, 85B, and 85C), which are major secretory products of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, were purified to homogeneity in large amounts by a combination of chromatography on hydroxylapatite, DEAE-Sepharose, and DEAE-Sephacel and gel filtration from M. tuberculosis culture filtrate. Then we examined the immunological reactivity of the three proteins in t...

Bovine parvovirus readily produced plaques when inoculated into 60% confluent, actively growing bovine embryonic lung cells. Incorporation of DEAE-dextran, MgCl2 and DMSO in the agarose overlay medium was found to improve plaque production, especially with the latter chemical. In contrast, protamine sulphate inhibited plaque development. It was found that plaque titration and plaque inhibition ...

Plasma from estrogenized, [32P] NaH2PO4-injected murrel, Channa punctatus was collected in the presence of proteolytic inhibitors and subjected to different separation procedures singly or in combination, viz., gel filtration chromatography on Ultrogel AcA 34, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE sephacel, or selective precipitation with dimethylformamide or with Mg2+: EDTA in order to isolate v...

Chromatographic analysis of organelle-associated citrate synthase activity revealed distinct mitochondrial and glyoxysomal forms of the enzyme. The chromatographic elution patterns on hydroxylapatite, carboxymethylcellulose and DEAE-cellulose of citrate synthase from the endosperm of 4.5-day-old castor bean seedlings revealed significant differences for mitochondrial and glyoxysomal activities ...

RNA polymerases I and II were partially purified from L1210 ascites cells by sonic disruption, batchwise treatment with diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) cellulose, ammonium sulfate-fractionation, and subsequent linear KCl gradient chromatograpy on DEAE cellulose column. The RNA polymerases from L1210 cells showed similar enzymatic properties as in cases of Ehrlich carcinoma-RNA polymerases. RNA polymer...

A method is described for the initial steps of sequence analysis of RNase T1-and pancreatic RN-ase-resistant oligonucleotides of RNA containing cytidylate residues labeled in vitro with 125I. In many cases an oligonucleotide sequence can be deduced from a consideration of (i) its relative position in the two-dimensional fingerprint (with DEAE thin layer homochromatographic second dimension), (i...

3H-triamcinolone acetonide labeled glucocorticoid receptors in normal lymphoid tissues can be resolved into two component by DEAE chromatography: peak I elutes at 0.04 M salt and peak II is 0.22 M salt. By glycerol gradient centrifugation, peak I is 3.5S and peak II 8.5S. Peak I binds to DNA and chromatin, while peak II binds to neither. After heat activation, peak II alters its coefficient of ...

A 15-kDa antifungal protein, designated ganodermin, was isolated from the medical mushroom Ganoderma lucidum. The isolation procedure utilized chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, Affi-gel blue gel, CM-Sepharose and Superdex 75. Ganodermin was unadsorbed on DEAE-cellulose and adsorbed on Affi-gel blue gel and CM-Sepharose. Ganodermin inhibited the mycelial growth of Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium oxys...

1. An 870-fold purification of glucokinase from rat liver is described which involves ammonium sulphate fractionation and the use of DEAE-Sephadex, DEAE-cellulose and polyacrylamide columns. 2. The preparation is free of any interfering enzymes and has a specific activity of 8mumoles/min./mg. of protein. 3. Glucokinase catalyses the phosphorylation of glucose, mannose and 2-deoxyglucose. 4. The...
