title: Affinity purification of cytosolic epoxide hydrolase from human, rhesus monkey, baboon, rabbit, rat and mouse liver.
abstract: An affinity purification system based on elution of cytosolic epoxide hydrolase from a methoxycitronellyl thiol ligand with 4-azidochalcone oxide was applied to a variety of samples including liver from human, monkey, baboon, rabbit, rat and mouse as well as mammary gland from mouse. Hepatic tissues yielded a major 58 kDa band on SDS-PAGE, but the system had to be modified slightly to remove a 33 kDa band for rat. All of the affinity purified hydrolases showed similar properties with regard to substrate selectivity, pH dependence and mobilities on SDS-PAGE.
