Protein(s) have been found in a wide range of tissues which have a high affinity for 25-hydroxycholecalciferol. Of the tissues examined only erythrocytes do not have this protein. The properties of the protein have been examined and it has been found that the association constatns range from 2 - 10(9) to 5 - 10(9) M-1 and the sedimentation constants between 5.0 and 6.0 S. It was not possible to distinguish the proteins from the different tissues by their S values, mobility on gel electrophoresis or behaviour on ion-exchange chromatography. These techniques were all used, however, to show that the tissue 25-hydroxycholecalciferol binding protein is distinct from the main plasma binding protein for this steroid and from the intestinal 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol-binding protein. A protein has been in the plasma of rachitic animals but not of normals, which is apparently indistinguishable from this new tissue 25-hydroxycholecalciferol-binding protein. The steroid specificity of this new binding protein has been shown to be dependent upon a C-25 hydroxyl group, and an intact conjugated double bond system. Possible functions for this protein have been briefly discussed.
