The separation of microsomal membranes and free polyribosomes by gel filtration. 1979

N McCole, and D N Palmer, and D J Williams

The integrity of polyribosome-membrane complexes in microsomal preparations is dependent on the centrifugal conditions used for their preparation. This paper describes techniques based on gel filtration that enable the rapid and gentle separation of microsomal membranes from both free polyribosomes and soluble protein.

D008861 Microsomes Artifactual vesicles formed from the endoplasmic reticulum when cells are disrupted. They are isolated by differential centrifugation and are composed of three structural features: rough vesicles, smooth vesicles, and ribosomes. Numerous enzyme activities are associated with the microsomal fraction. (Glick, Glossary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1990; from Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed) Microsome
D011132 Polyribosomes A multiribosomal structure representing a linear array of RIBOSOMES held together by messenger RNA; (RNA, MESSENGER); They represent the active complexes in cellular protein synthesis and are able to incorporate amino acids into polypeptides both in vivo and in vitro. (From Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed) Polysomes,Polyribosome,Polysome
