the purification of biomolecules is a necessary step in many biochemical researches. in this regard, developments of convenient, specific and low cost methods of purification are of particular interest. given the human hemoglobin (hb) affinity toward some charged carbohydrates, interaction of this molecule with human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg) which is a glycoprotein hormone containing sialic...

The application of the climatic chamber presented in this paper to assess storage stability immobilized lipases is a new approach characterized by potential unifying study conditions biocatalysts created various laboratories. data achieved from storing chambers may be crucial for chemical and pharmaceutical industry. Our describes developed protocols immobilization via interfacial activation li...

Acetone fractionated peroxidase from crude extract of Brassica oleracea leaves (Cabbage) was purified in three steps on chromatographic columns, using Sp-Sepharose, DEAE-Sepharose and Con A-Sepharose. The specific activity of purified main isoenzyme (BOC-POD) is 1887 u/mg protein with RZ: 3.1, which is 172 times more than the RZ of crude extract with 4.3% recovery. The molecular weight of BOC-P...

A pyrimidine-guanine sequence-specific ribonuclease (RC-RNase) was purified from Rana catesbeiana (bullfrog) oocytes by sequential phosphocellulose, Sephadex G75, heparin Sepharose CL 6B and CM-Sepharose CL 6B column chromatography. The purified enzyme with molecular weight of 13,000 daltons gave a single band on SDS-polyacrylamide gel. One CNBr-cleaved fragment has a sequence of NVLSTTRFQLNT/T...

Rabbit lens epithelial cells synthesize and secrete a variety of [35S]sulphate-labeled glycoconjugates in vitro. Associated with the cell layer, and with the medium, was a high molecular weight glycoconjugate(s) that contained heparan sulphate which was apparently covalently linked to sulphated glycoprotein. This component(s) was eluted in the void volume of a Sepharose CL-2B column and could n...

Confluent cultured human lung fibroblasts were labeled with 35SO4(2-). After 48 h of labeling, the pericellular matrix was prepared by Triton X-100 and deoxycholate extraction of the monolayers. Heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) accounted for nearly 80% of the total matrix [35S]proteoglycans. After solubilization in 6 M guanidinium HCl and cesium chloride density gradient centrifugation, the ...

A high yield purification scheme for monoamine oxidase A from human placental mitochondria is described. The enzyme is solubilized by a combination of treatment with phospholipase A and C and extraction with Triton X-100 and further purified by partitioning between dextran and polyethylene glycol polymers. The enzyme was obtained in 35% yield and high purity on DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B chromatograp...

Proteoglycans in mineralized (0.5 M-EDTA/4 M-guanidinium chloride-extractable) and non-mineralized (4 M-guanidinium chloride-extractable) matrices synthesized by a mouse osteoblastic-cell line MC3T3-E1 were characterized at different phases of mineralization in vitro. Cell cultures were labelled with [35S]sulphate and either [3H]glucosamine or 3H-labelled amino acids. At the mineralization phas...

Branched chain a-ketoacid dehydrogenase was purified 1,400-fold from a Triton X-100 extract of rabbit liver by polyethylene glycol fractionation, chromatography on hydroxyapatite and Sepharose CL-2B, and high speed centrifugation. The complex eluted from Sepharose CL-2B prior to blue dextran, indicating an apparent M, > 2 x 10‘. Electrophoresis on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels indi...
