title: Purification of tumor mitochondrial malic enzyme by specific ligand affinity chromatography.
abstract: A two-step chromatographic procedure, based on a specific ligand-binding approach, for the purification of tumor NAD(P)(+)-dependent malic enzyme is described. The enzyme was purified to near homogeneity by extraction from mitochondria, negative cellulose phosphate chromatography, ammonium sulfate precipitation, and application of specific elution from a malate-agarose column. The rationale for the use of the affinity column is also described.
