Binding of aflatoxins B1 and G1 to human serum proteins

Zusammenfassung In vitro Experimente mit¹⁴C-markiertem, gereinigtem Aflatoxin zur Untersuchung der Bindung von Aflatoxin B₁ und G₁ an verschiedene Serumproteine ergaben, dass Aflatoxin B₁ hauptsächlich mit-Globulin, G₁ dagegen vorwiegend mit Albumin bindet.

Binding of 3,3',5'-triiodo-L-thyronine (rT3) to human serum proteins]

The rT3-binding and human serum proteins was directly studied with tracer doses of radioactive rT3. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed 125I-rT3 added to human serum was distributed among two proteins: albumin (carrying 57% of tracer rT3) and TBPA )22%). No binding was observed to TBG, protein binding T4.     

Binding of tryptophan to different serum proteins in humans and in rats

Riassunto Sieri di uomo e di ratto sono stati incubati con C¹⁴-l-triptofano e sottoposti a elettroforesi su gel di poliacrilamide. Nel siero umano la radioattività si è localizzata nelle frazioni albuminica, prealbuminica e macroglobulinica. Nel siero di ratto il C¹⁴-l-triptofano si è localizzato nella zona delle albumine, -globuline e macroglobuline.     

Binding of centchroman--a nonsteroidal antifertility agent to human plasma proteins

Centchroman, a non-steroidal antifertility agent showed a low affinity (Kd = 13.19 X 10(-6) M) and nonsaturable binding to human plasma. Centchroman did not compete either with sex hormone binding globulin or corticosteroid binding globulin. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and temperature dependent binding characteristics revealed that the protein responsible for centchroman binding to human plasma resembles albumin.     

Non-paramagnetism of human serum proteins

Zusammenfassung Normale Serumproteine wurden mittels Elektromagnetophorese in Zellulose-Azetatgel ausgeführt, wobei keine Trennung der einzelnen Proteine erfolgte. Es stellte sich heraus, dass Serumproteine keine paramagnetischen Eigenschaften aufweisen.     

Binding of centchroman—a nonsteroidal antifertility agent to human plasma proteins

Summary Centchroman, a non-steroidal antifertility agent showed a low affinity (K_d=13.19×10^–6 M) and nonsaturable binding to human plasma. Centchroman did not complete either with sex hormone binding globulin or corticosteroid binding globulin. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and temperature dependent binding characteristics revealed that the protein responsible for centchroman binding to human plasma resembles albumin.Acknowledgment.

Binding of antimalarial drugs to hemozoin fromPlasmodium berghei

Summary Chloroquine, quinacrine and mefloquine bind toPlasmodium berghei hemozoin, hemin, heme, protoporphyrin IX and protease digested methemoglobin. This binding may be the basis for drug accumulation and action in the parasite.Acknowledgments. We thank the World Health Organization, the National Research Council of Thailand and Mahidol University for financial support. Dr Prapin Wilairat's suggestions are appreciated.     

Electrophoretic behavior of sonicated human serum proteins

Zusammenfassung Normale und abnorme Seren sowie gereinigtes menschliches Serumalbumin und Serumglobulin, wurden vor und nach Ultraschalleinwirkung auf elektrophoretisches Verhalten untersucht. Die Unterlagen deuten auf eine Bildung aussergewöhnlicher Komplexe zwischen gewissen Serumproteinen, wahrscheinlich-Globulin und Albuminfraktionen, durch ultrasonische Frequenzen hin.     

Binding of I-131 labeled thyroxine by water soluble human pituitary proteins

Résumé Etude de la propriété qu'ont les protéines pituitaires solubles dans l'eau de lier la thyroxine d'indice I-131. L'électrophorèse au pH 8,6, en utilisant comme tampons le véronal et le tris-maléate, de même que l'autoradiographie sur bandes de papier montrent que ces protéines lient la thyroxine I-131 dans une zone correspondant à la fraction des globulines du sérum humain.     

Paramagnetism of human serum proteins demonstrated by two-stage electromagnetophoresis

Zusammenfassung Normale Serumproteine wurden mittels zweistufiger Elektromagnetophorese in Polyacrylamidgel, einer neuen Technik, aufgetrennt, wobei die Trennung auf Grund der paramagnetischen Eigenschaften der einzelnen Proteine erfolgt.

Identification of human serum proteins binding iron,copper, and thyroid hormones by starch gel electrophoresis

Résumé On a analysé au moyen d'électrophorèse sur gel d'amidon les protéines qui, dans le sérum humain, lient le fer, le cuivre et l'hormone thyroïdienne, en utilisant comme témoins des protéines purifiées et la radioactivité. Le fer est lié par la -globuline qui, dans certaines familles, paraît se diviser en deux composants. Le cuivre est lié par la céruloplasmine, qui émigre dans la position ₂ rapide. La protéine principale liant la thyroxine est la préalbumine.
