title: Purification and N-terminal sequence analysis of Streptomyces chromofuscus phospholipase D.
abstract: Partially purified commercial phospholipase D (PLD) was fractionated by dye-ligand affinity chromatography and nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Active material migrated as three bands on SDS-PAGE. The two higher-abundance species were shown to have identical N-terminal sequences, while the third band was present in much smaller amounts and had a distinct sequence. Cloning Streptomyces chromofuscus PLD will allow the construction of stable transfectants of mast cell lines permitting regulated expression of PLD.
