title: [Detection of an immunoglobulin-like serum protein possessing a high affinity for collagen].
abstract: Fibronectin isolated from bovine serum by affinity chromatography on collagen-Sepharose was found to contain a great number of concomitant proteins. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of experimental samples pretreated with beta-mercaptoethanol under denaturation conditions resulted in the polypeptide fractions with Mr of 25, 54 and 82 KD, while the non-treated samples contained only one protein of non-fibronectin type (Mr = = 180-190 KD). This protein was isolated from the total preparations of collagen-binding proteins by the procedures generally employed for the isolation of purified preparations of immunoglobulins G; this protein was also isolated from purified immunoglobulins G using affinity chromatography on collagen-Sepharose. In terms of its molecular weight, subunit composition and immunological and chromatographical behaviour this protein can be related to immunoglobulins. The immunoglobulin-like protein isolated together with fibronectin revealed an affinity for denatured collagen, but not for fibronectin or Sepharose. The content of immunoglobulin with an affinity for denatured collagen in the total fraction of immunoglobulins G is 0.3-0.5%.
