A rapid and simple method for the isolation of the two chains of ricin is described. The method involves two chromatographic runs, the first on blue-Sepharose and the second on blue dextran-Sepharose. It is moreover shown that the A chain of ricin, but not the B chain, binds to poly(U)-Sepharose.

The isolated vascularly perfused rat intestine exhibits an obligatory need for a protein carrier in order to absorb zinc. Therefore this system is ideal for use as a model to identify the plasma carrier during zinc absorption. Affinity chromatography on Blue Sepharose CL-6B was employed to separate the major serum zinc-binding proteins in the portal effluent of the perfused intestine. It was found that 94% of newly absorbed 65Zn was transported in the portal serum-containing perfusate as an albumin-65Zn complex. The identity of albumin as the plasma carrier was confirmed by polyacrylamide-slab-gel electrophoresis. This evidence suggests that albumin is the plasma protein that is involved in removal of zinc from intestinal-mucosal cells and subsequent transport of the metal in portal blood to the liver.

An enzyme catalysing the synthesis of sym-homospermidine from putrescine and NAD+ with concomitant liberation of NH3 was purified 100-fold from Lathyrus sativus (grass pea) seedlings by affinity chromatography on Blue Sepharose. This thiol enzyme had an apparent mol.wt. of 75000 and exhibited Michelis-Menten kinetics with Km 3.0mM for putrescine. The same enzyme activity could also be demonstrated in the crude extracts of sandal (Santalum album) leaves, but with a specific activity 15-fold greater than that in L. sativus seedlings.
