SummaryCation-exchange chromatography on a Mono S column (Pharmacia) was used to separate macropeptide from whey proteins. Macropeptide was eluted by 0·1 M-NaCl in a 20 mM-KCl–HCl buffer, pH 2. This technique was suitable for quantitative determination of macropeptide in rennet whey and also for following the action of chymosin on κ-casein in skim milk. Precipitation at pH 4·6 was used to remove residual caseins and to keep macropeptide in solution. In comparison with other methods for determining macropeptide, the present one eliminates the need for pretreatment of samples with trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and allows the recovery of all the macropeptide. Quantitative determination of macropeptide in the 8% TCA-soluble fraction by cation-exchange chromatography showed that only 50–75% of the macropeptide was recovered. This chromatographic technique could also be applied for isolating and producing whole macropeptide on a preparative scale.

Abstract The (adenine + thymine)/(guanine + cytosine) base ratios of 19 species of adriatic sponges have been determined by high-pressure liquid cation-exchange chromatography. The base ratios vary from 1.49 (Mycale massa) to 0.63 (Hippospongia communis) according to an (A+T) content of 59.7 and 38.6 mol%, respectively. The DNAs of sponges of the order Keratosa showed marked differences in their (A +T) contents (39.5 to 58.8 mol%) whereas those of Tetractinellida and Halichondrina were nearly identical (39.3 to 40.8 and 49.5 to 49.8 mol%, respectively). The 5-methylcytosine (5MC) content was determined in 8 sponge DNAs by a semiquantitative method. The values differed from 0.8 to 2.2 mol% of 5MC.
