title: Selective protein transport: identity of the solubilized phosvitin receptor from chicken oocytes.
abstract: By two independent methods, the solubilized receptor for phosvitin (PV) has a subunit MW of 116K. Affinity chromatography, showed that only 2 of the more than 25 proteins present in the total detergent solubilized oocyte membrane extract were retained on a PV-agarose column. These proteins of MW of 116K and 100K could be eluted from PV-agarose with free PV. By gel exclusion chromatography, the receptor-125I-PV complexes elute in the void volume of a Biogel A-1.5 column. When these void fractions were assayed gy SDS-PAGE only a single protein of MW of 116K was observed in addition to 125I-PV.
