β¦ Synopsis
This paper presents data on the reproducibility of the agargel electrophoretic method for the analysis of specific steroid binding proteins, together with an evaluation of the auxiliary techniques required to produce a suitable assay sample. We find for intra-assay variability a coefficient of variation of approximately 3%, while for the interassay variability the value is approximately 7%. The method is also shown capable of assessing and correcting for the dissociation of the steroid-protein complexes during analysis. In view of the current preoccupation with the clinical utility of receptor assays, we feel that similar data should be made available for the other commonly used receptor assays.

Plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) is bound to vitronectin (VN) in plasma and in the extracellular matrix. We previously employed a domainswapping approach to show that the high-affinity binding site for PAI-1 in VN is contained within residues 12-30 in the amino-terminal somatomedin B (
