β¦ Synopsis
Polyphosphates of chain lengths between 3 and 100 were coupled to porous zirconia particles and used for affinity chromatography of nucleic acids and proteins. It is demonstrated that single-stranded RNA and DNA are strongly retained on the polyphosphate-modified zirconia support, while double-stranded DNA is only weakly bound if at all. Protein separation on this packing can be performed by applying both high-performance liquid chromatography and batch procedures. The results show that polyphosphate-modified zirconia is a useful affinity packing for immobilization and purification of biomacromolecules.

We have employed biotin-labeled RNA to serve two functions. In one, the biotin tethers the RNA to streptavidin-agarose beads, creating an affinity resin for protein purification. In the other, the biotin functions as a label for use in a modified chemiluminescent electromobility shift assay (EMSA),
A method is described for the preparation and purification of 7-[ 1251] -1odoc1onazepam ( 5-(2-Chlorophenyl ) -2,3-Dihydro-7-[ 1251]-Iodo-1H-1,4-Benzodiazepin-2-one). The structure was confirmed by mass spectrometry using 7-[ 1271]iodoclonazepam prepared by the same method. to a benzodiaeepine antis
A novel one-step protocol for the preparation of sub-micron magnetic particles as small as 30 nm in diameter has been developed. The surface of the particles was functionalized with carboxyl groups (βΌ1 COOH per 15Γ 2 ) to facilitate the attachment of affinity ligands. The high surface area of the re
Recently, we have reported the isolation and characterization of a putative genomic DNA clone encoding bovine adrenal phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PNMT) (Batter et al., 1988). However, the lack of primary amino-acid sequence data for this enzyme precluded a definitive proof of the authent
