[Isolation of antiserum against rat transcortin and characteristics of specific antibodies].
Repeated chromatography of rat plasma protein on DEAE-cellulose, hydroxylapatite and subsequent gel-filtration through Sephadex G-200 were used to obtain a pure rat transcortin homogeneous upon polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. The molecular weight of transcortin was about 66 kDa as determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Immunization of a rabbit with the homogeneous preparation of rat plasma transcortin caused development of antibodies to transcortin. It was shown that the antibodies of rabbit antisera in the experiments made in vitro and in vivo neutralized 60 and 65% of 3H-corticosterone-transcortin complexes, respectively. Specific antibodies to the transcortin were isolated from the homogeneous fraction of IgG by affinity chromatography on transcortin-sepharose 4B. 125J-labelled antibodies were adsorbed by protein A-sepharose; IgG can be eluted by IM acetic acid as a sharp peak. The SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis demonstrated that affinity-eluted material contains 25 and 50 kDa polypeptides.
