Detection and identification of new cardioactive proteins in cattle heart

Seven cardioactive polypeptides were identified in precardiac and auricular regions of bovine heart. Procedures used for purification of the polypeptides involved extraction of water-soluble proteins, fractionation by ammonium sulfate, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, chromatography and rechromatog...

Description
Summary:Seven cardioactive polypeptides were identified in precardiac and auricular regions of bovine heart. Procedures used for purification of the polypeptides involved extraction of water-soluble proteins, fractionation by ammonium sulfate, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, chromatography and rechromatography on DEAE cellulose. Some physico-chemical and biological properties were studied; amino acid composition, N-terminal amino acids, molecular mass and the effects on coronary blood vessels. The data obtained suggest that multiple forms of these proteins may exist either as a result of partial hydrolysis of large molecules or due to processing of precursors.
