title: [Purification of solubilized fucosyltransferase from lamb brain using ethylagarose gel].
abstract: The glycoprotein: fucosyl-transferase of the cerebral hemispheres, assayed with desialylated fetuin as exogenous acceptor, was the most active of the protein: glycosyltransferases tested in the brain. The addition of Titron X-100 to the membrane suspension, followed by high speed centrifugation, led to a solubilization of the enzyme. The use of hydrophobic chromatography on ethylagarose gave a good purification of this solubilized fucosyl-transferase, whose homogeneity has been shown by Ultrogel AcA 22, DEAE-cellulose chromatography and disc electrophoresis.
