Purification of proteins from the 50S ribosomal subunit of Escherichia coli by ion-exchange chromatography. 1976

R A Zimmermann, and G Stöffler

Thirty-three proteins have been isolated from the 50S ribosomal subunit of Escherichia coli by a technique based solely upon ion-exchange chromatography. The procedure can be adapted to a wide range of sample sizes, requires no prefractionation of the subunit proteins, and employs readily regenerated chromatographic media. The molecular weights, purity, and immunological properties of the individual proteins have been characterized. More than 20 of the proteins were judged to be at least 95% pure by electrophoretic analysis; the remaining proteins were generally over 90% pure. Methods for the immunological identification of small amounts of ribosomal proteins are described.

D004926	Escherichia coli	A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc.	Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
