Physical, Chemical and Catalytic Properties of the Isozymes of Bovine Glucose Phosphate Isomerase

Description: Glucose phosphate isomerase (GPI) occurs in different bovine tissues as multiple, catalytically active isozymes which can be resolved by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing. GPI from bovine heart was purified to homogeneity and each of the isozymes was resolved. Four of the five isozymes were characterized with regard to their physical, chemical and catalytic properties in order to establish their possible physiological significance and to ascertain their molecular basis… more

Brainstem Gangliosides in Suddden Infant Death Syndrome

Description: Recent studies have shown that the Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is related to abnormal control of respiration (Ischemic degeneration of the brainstem may play an important role in altered respiratory control leading to death). In our studies we have examined brainstem ganglioside compositions in samples derived from SIDS victims and appropriate controls. Gangliosides are acidic glycosphingolipids that contain sialic acid. The high concentration of gangliosides in the central nervous syst… more

Colony-Stimulating Factor from Umbilical Cord Endothelial Cells

Description: Conditioned media prepared from umbilical cord (UC) segments or endothelial cells (EC) contain colony stimulating activity, Both UCCM and ECCM were partially purified by DEAE-Sepharose and ACA44 gel filtration chromatography. The molecular weights were estimated as 25,000 and 31,000 for UC-CSF and EC-CSF, respectively. UC-CSF was further fractionated by Con A Sepharose, IEF and HPLC on a hydrophobic phenyl column. The highly purified CSF stimulates human macrophage and granulocyte colony format… more

Occurrence and Structure of an Activating Enzyme for an S6 Kinase Determined by Monoclonal Antibody Analysis

Description: In this study, the production of monoclonal antibodies directed against the activating enzyme for an S6 kinase is examined and described. Evidence is presented for the association of an Mr. 55,000 abd Mr. 95,000 protein with the s6 kinase. These proteins are phosphorylated in the presence of Activating Enzyme. A sequence of regulatory events for insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 in cells is postulated as follows: insulin activates the receptor tyrosine kinase, which pho… more

Purification, Characterization and Receptor Binding of Human Colony-Stimulating Factor-1

Description: Human colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) was purified from the serum-free conditioned medium of a human pancreatic carcinoma cell line. The four-step procedure included chromatography on DEAE Sepharose, Con A Sepharose and HPLC on phenyl column and reverse-phase C-3 column. The purity of human CSF-1 was demonstrated by sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS—PAGE) as a single diffuse band with a molecular weight (Mr) of 42,000-50,000 and was further confirmed by a single … more
