title: A simple method for purification of epoxide hydratase from rat liver.
abstract: Rat liver epoxide hydratase was purified 460-fold to homogeneity by detergent solubilization and ion-exchange chromatography. The enzyme obtained in high yield (36%) exhibited a specific activity of 479nmol of styrene glycol formed/min per mg of protein, with styrene oxide as substrate. Only one polypeptide-staining band, mol.wt. 49500, was visible after sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis.
