Formiminotransferase-cyclodeaminase from porcine liver: Purification and physical properties of the enzyme complex

A simple procedure for the purification of the formiminotransferase-cyclodeaminase enzyme complex is described. The crystalline preparation is homogeneous by ultracentrifugation and electrophoresis and appears to be composed of eight apparently identical subunits of about 6.4 × 10 4 daltons. Both en...

Zusammenfassung:A simple procedure for the purification of the formiminotransferase-cyclodeaminase enzyme complex is described. The crystalline preparation is homogeneous by ultracentrifugation and electrophoresis and appears to be composed of eight apparently identical subunits of about 6.4 × 10 4 daltons. Both enzyme activities migrate with the single protein band on electrophoresis and it is proposed that the activities are probably associated with different sites on one type of polypeptide chain.
