Both discoidin I and discoidin II have been detected on the surface of aggregating (10 h developmental stage) cells of Dictyostelium discoideum NC4 by radioiodination of the cell-surface followed by immunoprecipitation and sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel-electrophoretic analysis. Approx. 92% of cell-surface discoidin I and 72% of cell-surface discoidin II can be eluted with 0.5 M-galactose, showing that most of each endogenous lectin is not present as integral membrane protein but rather is bound to cell-surface discoidin receptors. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide-gel-electrophoretic analysis of discoidin I suggests that the native tetramer may be a hetero-multimer composed of both Ia and Ib subunits. Cell-surface discoidin I also contains both types of subunit, but it is not clear whether both subunits have corresponding cell-surface receptors.

New Method

The surface proteins of dividing and non-dividing subpopulations of rat and mouse thymocytes have been labelled by using a new method of radioiodination. Sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and autoradiography of the labelled proteins shows distinct differences in labelling between the mouse and rat cells and also, in the case of the rat, between the dividing and non-dividing populations.

Malate dehydrogenase from a number of bacteria drawn from several genera and representing the mesophilic, moderately thermophilic and extremely thermophilic classes was isolated by procedures which involve only a small number of steps (in most cases only two), of which the key one is affinity chromatography on 5′-AMP–Sepharose and/or on NAD+–hexane–agarose. Electrophoretic analysis of the native enzymes in polyacrylamide gel and of the denaturated enzymes in sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel revealed no significant protein impurity in the purified preparations. The yields ranged from about 40% to over 80%. The malate dehydrogenases from the extreme thermophiles and from some of the moderate thermophiles are appreciably less efficient catalytically than their mesophilic homologues.

SummaryTwo dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D SDS–PAGE) has been used to produce ‘fingerprint’ maps of the proteins from each of the 7 species of Eimeria which infect the chicken. All 7 species could be identified from their array of polypeptides but few differences were detected between strains of the same species. Alterations to the polypeptide array associated with the stage of sporulation of the oocysts were observed. lodination of sporozoites, 2D SDS–PAGE, autoradiography and immunoblotting techniques were combined to identify polypeptides with a surface moiety and those which were antigenic.
