By varying conditions of starch gel electrophoresis, factors contributing to the resolution of myogen proteins from chicken breast muscle have been studied. Variables examined included composition of the myogen extractant, protein concentration, ionic strength of electrophoretic media, pH of gel media, plane and direction of electrophoresis, and the nature of cations and anions in gel media and bridge solutions. The significance of anions was more closely studied with constant buffer systems, and gradient systems in which bridge electrolyte differed from, and gradually altered, the gel medium. Optimal separation was obtained in gradient systems with 0.10 M sodium chloride bridge solutions, and gel media of sodium cacodylate, pH 6.9, μ 0.010, which resolved 12 cationic zones, and sodium veronal, pH 7.4, μ 0.010, which resolved 10 anionic zones. These buffers in two-dimensional sequence revealed a total of about 24 components in this myogen.

Phosphoglyceromutase (2,3-diphospho-D-glycerate: 2-phospho-D-glycerate phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.5.3) has been purified from both frozen and fresh chicken breast muscle. During purification it was found that substrate, 3-phospho-D-glycerate stabilized the enzyme against heat inactivation to almost the same extent as did the cofactor 2,3-diphospho-D-glycerate.Phosphoglyceromutase prepared from frozen chicken breast muscle separated into three peaks of activity (I, II, and III) following chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex in 0.05 μ phosphate buffer, pH 8.0, using a 0.0–0.4 M NaCl gradient. Each peak of activity was shown by polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis at pH 9.3 to contain two enzymically active components (isoenzymes Ia Ib, IIa IIb, and IIIa IIIb). Isoenzymes in the same peak had the same specific activity. Phosphoglyceromutase prepared from fresh chicken breast muscle yielded only one peak of activity following chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex. This peak contained two enzymically active components corresponding to isoenzymes Ia and Ib. Additional peaks of activity were not produced when phosphoglyceromutase from fresh muscle was subjected to freezing and thawing.Isoenzyme Ia and mixtures of Ia and Ib, IIa and IIb, and IIIa and IIIb were homogeneous in the ultra-centrifuge sedimenting as single peaks. The sedimentation coefficient obtained for isoenzyme Ia and for Ia and Ib combined was 4.15 S, the diffusion constant 6.62 × 10−7 cm2/s, and the molecular weight calculated from both gel filtration and sedimentation data was of the order of 59 000. These results were confirmed by charge isomer studies which also showed that the isoenzymes of phosphoglyceromutase from frozen chicken breast muscle were proteins of the same size but different net charges.
