Dopamine beta-hydroxylase was isolated from normal human plasma. The major form of the active enxyme in plasma was purified to apparent homogeneity and is a 300,000-dalton tetramer containing 4 atoms of tightly bound copper. About 20% of the enzyme activity in plasma was isolated as a dimeric form of this enzyme. Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis of the purified form gave a polypeptide subunit molecular weight of 72,000 and disulfide-linked dimers of this component were observed. Both forms of the enzyme are apparently glycoproteins and interact with immobilized concanavalin A. Furthermore, the enzyme is capable of binding to alkyl-substituted agarose by hydrophobic interaction. Advantage was taken of these properties to purify the enzyme. Both purified tetramer and partially purified dimer were further characterized by kinetic analysis and the Stokes radii and S20,W of these species were compared. Rabbit antiserum to the purified tetramer revealed no immunochemical differences between the two enzyme forms by using a method of immunotitration.
