Department of Pharmaceutical Microbiology, Academy of Medicine, Lódź, Poland.

Staphylococcal L-asparaginase has been purified 400-fold with 40% recovery. The procedure involves ammonium sulphate precipitation and a column chromatography on Sephadex G-200 gel filtration). The enzyme is composed of not identical subunits. protein (pI 4.4) with the approximate molecular weight of 125,000 (estimated by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration). The enzyme is composed of not identical subunits. The polyacrylamide-SDS gel electrophoresis indicated two subunits with molecular weight 18,000 and 22,000.
