Purification and some properties of rabbit anti-ovalbumin. 1973

A A Ansari, and A Salahuddin

Unlike previous reports that the ovalbumin-anti-ovalbumin complex did not dissociate completely in acid media, our results showed complete dissociation of the complex both in 1.2m-acetic acid, pH2.3, and in KCl-HCl, pH2.2, I 0.06. Thus Sephadex chromatography of the solution obtained by dissolving the antigen-antibody precipitate in these media repeatedly gave two peaks corresponding to anti-ovalbumin and ovalbumin. Further, gel-diffusion and immunoelectrophoresis experiments showed that the phosphate groups of ovalbumin are not involved in the antigenic sites. The antibody thus purified was more easily precipitated than previous preparations. The molecular weight and Stokes radius of the antibody were calculated from its gel-filtration behaviour and were found to be 148000 and 4.8nm respectively. The molecular weight determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was essentially similar (about 0.7% lower).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007122 Immunoelectrophoresis A technique that combines protein electrophoresis and double immunodiffusion. In this procedure proteins are first separated by gel electrophoresis (usually agarose), then made visible by immunodiffusion of specific antibodies. A distinct elliptical precipitin arc results for each protein detectable by the antisera.
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008722 Methods A series of steps taken in order to conduct research. Techniques,Methodological Studies,Methodological Study,Procedures,Studies, Methodological,Study, Methodological,Method,Procedure,Technique
D008970 Molecular Weight The sum of the weight of all the atoms in a molecule. Molecular Weights,Weight, Molecular,Weights, Molecular
D010047 Ovalbumin An albumin obtained from the white of eggs. It is a member of the serpin superfamily. Serpin B14
D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.
