摘要
Rat liver contains a non-specific phospholipid transfer protein that transfers phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and sphingomyelin as well as cholesterol between membranes. A new high-yield procedure for the purification of this protein, which includes fractionation on DEAE-cellulose, Sephadex G-50 and hydroxyapatite is described. Starting from a pH 5.1 supernatant, a homogeneous protein was obtained after a 1,540-fold purification at a yield of 50%. The protein has a MW of 14,800 as estimated by electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. It has a blocked N-terminal amino acid and a tryptophanyl fluorescence emission maximum at 335 nm. Its amino acid composition was determined and compared to data published by others on similar proteins.
