Distribution of endogenous cobalamin between the transcobalamins in various mammals. 1979

J C Linnell, and L Collings, and M C Down, and J M England

1. Plasma samples from ten mammals were chromatographed on Sephadex G-200 columns and the total cobalamin content of each fraction was determined. 2. Unlike the situation in man, the bulk of the endogenous plasma cobalamin was found attached to a transcobalamin II-like protein in all ten animals. Transcobalamin 0 carried between 3 and 20% and this proportion appeared to be inversely related to the plasma total cobalamin. No endogenous cobalamin peak corresponding to transcobalamin I was detected in any species, though in the rabbit 5.3% of the plasma total cobalamin was attached to a protein of apparent molecular weight 176 000.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.
