N-terminal sequence analysis of human placental protein 14, purified in high yield from decidual cytosol.
Human placental protein 14 (PP14) has been purified in high yield from first trimester decidual cytosol. High-performance liquid chromatography on anion exchange, gel filtration and reverse-phase chromatography were used. The protein obtained is approximately 97% pure with an overall recovery of about 50% from the original tissue extract. The first 24 amino acids of the N-terminal were found to be Met-Asp-Ile-Pro-Gln-Thr-Lys-Gln-Asp-Leu-Glu-Leu-Pro-Lys-Leu-Ala-Gly-Thr-Glu-His - Glu-Met-Ala-Met. PP14 has been characterized in this study to be a dimeric glycoprotein of Mr 60,000, with homologous subunits having an Mr of 28,000.
