A comparison by HPLC of ferritin subunit types in human tissues.
Ferritin was isolated from human liver and spleen. Reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography of the ferritin subunits from each tissue yielded the same three chromatographic fractions. Physical and chemical characterization of the three fractions indicated that they represented at least two, perhaps three, chemically distinct subunits.
