Fibronectin has been purified by gelatin-Sepharose affinity chromatography from fresh frozen human plasma. The bound fibronectin was eluted with 3 M urea. The purity of the fibronectin obtained has been checked on (immunoelectrophoresis, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, FPLC). Biological activity of the purified molecule has been monitored by means of three assays: quantitation of the gelatin-binding activity by ELISA, quantitation of the fibronectin-mediated attachment of fibroblasts on plastic and evaluation of the opsonic activity (uptake of gelatin latex particles by a murine macrophage line). When deep-frozen, fibronectin retains all of its properties. This highly purified and functional fibronectin fulfills the basic requirements for a standard reagent. It will allow to investigate physicochemical and functional alterations of various fibronectins.

D005353 Fibronectins Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.
