<p>The bacteriocin purification involves following main steps. a). Extraction of cell-free-supernatant of bacteria. b). Ammonium sulfate precipitation. c). Dialysis. d). Diafiltration using PVP and e). Size-exclusion chromatography. However, depending on the nature of work, the compound could be further analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC, NMR, mass spectrometry and sequencing.</p><p><strong>Video Clips</strong></p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/v/u1BmWfOTS9w">Part 1</a>: 4 min 52 sec</p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/v/aF45JFnwErc">Part 2</a>: 1 min 47 sec</p>

Four commercially available metallothioneins from rabbit liver (RL, RL I, RL II) and from horse kidney (HK) have been studied by size exclusion chromatography and by reverse-phase chromatography, to characterize their polymorphism. The isoforms are detected by UV at 250 nm. Separations by size exclusion show that the metallothioneins are partially dimerized, with molar rates of dimer ranging from 5% for HK to 15% for RL II. The four chromatograms obtained by reverse phase exhibit a different morphology: RL separates in four main isoforms, RL I into two, RL II into three, and HK into two. An attribution of the various peaks for the RL, RL I, and RL II series is proposed. The comparable results obtained by the two methods allow us to estimate that RL is composed of 20–30% RL I and 70–80% of RL II.

Introduction: LCAT (lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase ) is an enzyme which plays an essential role in cholesterol esterification and reverse cholesterol transport. Familial LCAT deficiency (FLD) is a disease characterized by a defect in LCAT resulting in extremely low HDL-C, premature corneal opacities, anemia as well as proteinuria and renal failure. Method: We have identified two brothers presenting characteristics of familial LCAT deficiency. We sequenced the LCAT gene, measured the lipid profile as well as the LCAT activity in 15 members of this kindred. We also characterized the plasma lipoproteins by agarose gel electrophoresis and size exclusion chromatography and sequenced several candidate genes related to dysbetalipoproteinemia in this family. Results: We have identified the first French Canadian kindred with familial LCAT deficiency. Two brothers affected by FLD, were homozygous for a novel LCAT mutation. This c.102delG mutation occurs at the codon for His35 causing a frameshift that stops transcription at codon 61 abolishing LCAT enzymatic activity both in vivo and in vitro. It has a dramatic effect on the lipoprotein profile, with an important reduction of HDL-C in both heterozygotes (22%) and homozygotes (88%) and a significant decrease in LDL-C in heterozygotes (35%) as well as homozygotes (58%). Furthermore, the lipoprotein profile differed markedly between the two affected brothers who had different APOE genotypes. We propose that APOE could be an important modifier gene explaining heterogeneity in lipoprotein profiles observed among FLD patients. Our results suggest that a LCAT-/- genotype associated with an APOE ?2 allele could be a novel mechanism leading to dysbetalipoproteinemia.
