A new protein was isolated from lysates of washed human erythrocytes in a two step procedure using ionexchange chromatography and gel filtration. The protein has the electrophoretic mobility of a beta1-globulin. On ultracentrifugation the purified protein when dissolved in a 0.05 M phosphate buffer (pH 6.8), containing 0.2 M NaCl sediments with 6.88 S and shows a molecular weight of 150,000-180,000 daltons. In salt solutions with higher ionic strength the molecules dissociate reversibly into subunits which have a molecular weight of 40,000-45,000 daltons. The 7S-beta1-erythrocyte protein according to its behavior at ultracentrifugation, gel filtration and SDS poly-acrylamide gel electrophreses apparently is composed of 4 identical or similar subunits which are loosely held together by noncovalent bonds. Chemically the 7S-beta1-erythrocyte protein consists of 99% amino acids and 1% carbohydrates. The concentration of this protein in erythrocytes amounts to 250 mg per 100 ml packed red blood cells. The protein is not found in the membrane. In its physical, chemical and immunochemical properties the 7S-beta1-erythrocyte protein differs from all other well defined proteins and enzymes from human red cells thus far known.

Both the analytical and preparative methods by which the preparations of 26a bydrochloride salt with a high antibacterial activity and 20--30% recovery have been obtained from the fermentation fluids of Bacillus subtilis are presented. On an industrial scale the antibiotic can be yielded by absorption of bioactivity on Amberlite CG-50I column and precipitation with picric acid of crude substance from active elutes as adduct which was divided on equilibrated CM--cellulose and finally purified by gel filtration on Sephadex G-25 column. The purified preparation gave a single band by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and one ninhydrin-positive spot by thin-layer chromatography on silica gel G plates corresponding to single zones of bioactivity on bioautograms, and moved as a single peak of almost constant antibacterial activity on Sephadex G-75, G-100 and G-200 columns. The potency of the purest preparations, lot Sephadex G-25, was 6,500--7,000 arbitrary units/mg, and were characterized as follows: purification factor, 57; purity of 98--100% by densitometer scans of SDS-polyacrylamide gels; MIC for Sarcina lutea by twofold agar dilution assay, 0.306 microgram/ml.

A fast method for preparing Ca2+-ATPase from rabbit muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum was devised. The method involves extracting extrinsic membrane proteins with the non-ionic detergent octylglucoside at high salt concentration. A Ca2+-ATPase of consistently high specific activity (about 25 mumoles/mg.min) is found in the insoluble residue. The method was optimized with respect to the concentrations of detergent and salt, pH, and other extraction conditions. By the criteria of the protein pattern in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, dependence of the hydrolytic activity on the presence of Ca2+, and the phosphoprotein formation, the preparation is identical with the Ca2+-ATPase isolated previously by MacLennan [10] and other authors. The main advantages of the new method are its rapidity, its reliability, and the high specific activity of the purified enzyme.

Hypertonic salt extracts prepared from the heart tissues of adolescent CD-1 mice were fractionated on Sephadex G-100 columns. Two separate fractions were obtained. Fraction I, containing the antigenic immunoreactive activity, was able to inhibit the migration of CVB3-PPD immune mouse peritoneal exudate cells (IMPEC) as well as PEC from mice infected with CVB3 virus alone. Fraction II did not have antigenic activity as assessed by the agarose droplet cell migration inhibition assay. As controls, Fraction I prepared from the livers of spleens of CVB3-infected CD-1 mice was unable to inhibit the migration of CVB3 IMPEC. Unimmunized or "normal" mouse peritoneal exudate cells (NMPEC) were not inhibited by Fraction I. Antibodies prepared against Fractions I and II were unable to neutralize CVB3m virus in the plaque reduction test, and polyacrylamide gel analysis revealed multiple bands in 10% SDS gels.

Differential centrifugation was used to prepare fractions from broken cells of Bordetella pertussis strain 114. Whole cells and several fractions were then assayed for potency and for safety. Crude ribosomal fractions were uniformly protective. However, ribosomes purified by washing in high salt solution and recentrifugation were at least 40 fold less potent. Protective antigen was found in the wash fluid. Wash fluid was subjected to SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. No specific protein or carbohydrate has yet been identified as a protective immunogen. It is clear that ribosomes are not protective, but copurify with protective antigen. SDS-polyacrylamide gel analysis of soluble material purified from ribosomes may be of value in experimental studies on pertussis vaccine. If the protective immunogen can be identified, this procedure may also be of value in vaccine standardization.

The subunits of ovine lutropin prepared by acid dissociation and salt precipitation were characterized by end group analysis, tryptic peptide mapping, SDS gel electrophoresis and biological activity. No evidence of internal peptide cleavage was found in the alpha subunit. The subunits possessed low activity. The alpha and beta subunits recombined effectively to generate a complex that had full receptor binding activity and in vitro biological activity. The recombinants of subunits prepared by countercurrent distribution showed only 50% activity in both assays. The salt precipitation method alpha subunit could be completely reduced and reoxidized in the absence of denaturants. The reoxidized alpha subunit combines with the native beta subunit generating full activity. However, this recombined hormone tends to lose activity with time, suggesting that the reoxidation may not fully restore the native structur of the reduced alpha subunit. The native lutropin alpha subunit effectively combined with follitropin beta subunit generating complete follitropin activity.

A method for the rapid manual isolation of polytene chromosomes and nuclear membranes from salivary glands of Chironomus tentans is presented and the analysis of some of their RNA and protein components before and after treatment with 2 M salt solutions is summarized.--After salt-incubation the chromosomes still display a considerable number of bands which stain with ethidium bromide and which are sensitive to treatment with DNase, RNase, trypsin, and proteinase K, to a lesser extent with pronase and papain. Analysis of the iodinated residual proteins on SDS gels yield three major and two minor bands (MW between 50,000 and 70,000 dalton) which were also shown to be present in interphase chromosomes of Ehrlich ascites cells which had been treated similarly and are also tightly bound constituents of DNA prepared according to Gross-Bellard et al. (1973). This result indicates the existence of a general class of non-histone proteins involved in keeping the DNA in a supercoiled state. Furthermore their presence in salt-treated nuclear membranes of Chironomus salivary gland cells (and Xenopus oocytes, unpubl.) will be of interest with respect to functional aspects of the nuclear matrix.

When cultured cells of the rat kangaroo cell line PtK2 grown on plastic or glass surfaces are lysed and extracted with combinations of low and high salt buffers and the non-ionic detergent Triton X-100 cytoskeletal preparations are obtained that show an enrichment of 6 to 11 nm thick filaments. The arrays of these filaments have been examined by various light and electron microscopic techniques, including ultrathin sectioning, whole mount transmission electron microscopy, negative staining, and indirect immunofluorescence microscopy. In addition, 6 to 11 nm filaments isolated from these cells with similar extraction procedures and with centrifugation techniques have been examined by electron microscopy. The arrays of these isolated intermediate-sized filaments, their ultrastructure and their specific decoration by certain antibodies present in normal rabbit sera as well as by guinea pig antibodies against purified bovine prekeratin is demonstrated. When preparations enriched in these intermediate-sized filaments are examined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis a corresponding enrichment of three polypeptide bands with apparent molecular weights of about 45 000, 52 000 and 58 000 (the latter component sometimes appears split into two bands) is observed, besides some residual actin and a few high molecular weight bands. The morphology of the isolated filaments, their immunological reaction with antibodies decorating prekeratin-containing structures, and the sizes of their constitutive polypeptides suggest that these filaments are closely related to prekeratin-containing filaments observed in a variety of epithelial cells.

1. The distribution of ribosomal protein S1 in subcellular fractions of E. coli was determined by radioimmunoassay. It was found that about 70%, 20% and 10% of protein S1 were present in the high salt (1.0 M NH4Cl)-washed ribosomes, the ribosomal wash and the S100 fraction, respectively. 2. Protein S1 was purified from unwashed ribosomes by an improved procedure which included: (i) extraction of protein S1 from unwashed ribosomes with 1.2 M LiCl and 1.0 M NH4Cl, (ii) ammonium sulfate fractionation, (iii) two successive column chromatographies on DEAE-Sephadex, and (iv) hydroxylapatite column chromatography. Purified protein S1 was homogeneous in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under native and denatured conditions. 3. The molecular weights determined by sedimentation equilibrium and by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were 83,000 and 70,000 respectively. The sedimentation coefficient was estimated as 3.0S by glycerol gradient centrifugation. The stokes radius determined by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration was 45 A. From these data, the frictional ratio of protein S1 was calculated to be 1.65, assuming the molecular weight and partial specific volume to be 70,000 and 0.736, respectively. Protein S1 had an elongated shape with an axial ratio of approximately 8.5. 4. Protein S1 contained 2 residues of half-cystine and about 10 residues of tryptophan. From CD measurements, the contents of alpha-helix and beta-structure were estimated to be 32 and 27%, respectively. 5. As reported by Kolb et al. (1977) (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S. 74, 2379-2383), and Draper et al. (1977) (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S. 74, 4786-4790), the intrinsic fluorescence of protein S1 was markedly quenched on interaction with poly(U). The maximal quenching was observed when 30 mol of poly(U) (as UMP residues) was added to one mol of the protein.

A new procedure for the purification of B. subtilis RNA polymerase, based on mild lysis of cells, low speed centrifugation, gel filtration, DEAE-Sephadex chromatography and affinity chromatography on DNA-cellulose, yields three forms of enzyme referred here as enzyme A, B and C. As revealed by SDS gel electrophoresis, enzyme A has the subunit structure of core polymerase plus some small polypeptides. Its catalytic properties are similar to those of core polymerase. Enzyme B has the composition of core polymerase. Both enzymes A and B can be stimulated by the addition of beta factor. Enzyme C has the holo-enzyme composition. The pattern of sensitivity of the three forms of enzyme towards KCl are very different: enzymes A and B, even at low concentration of salt, are inhibited with all the DNA templates tested, whereas enzyme C shows a pattern of stimulation specific for each DNA tested. The transcripts of the three enzymes on phage SPP1 DNA template have been analyzed by hybridization to the separated strands. Only enzyme C selectively transcribed the H strands.
