A simple method for identification and characterization of telomere-binding proteins is described in this article. After Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate-Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), proteins are eluted, renatured and used for retardation analysis with labelled oligonucleotides corresponding to human and plant of telomeric sequences. We show here that this method is efficient to recover sequence-specific DNA-binding abilities of putative telomere-binding proteins.

α1-Globulin-type protease inhibitors were isolated from goat serum by two methods, namely preparative isoelectric focusing and preparative electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel. The fractions obtained by the first method showed varying isoprotein compositions by analytical isoelectric focusing. Sodium dodecyl sulfate – polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) revealed the presence of one protein in the fractions with the same velocity of migration as purified human α1-antitrypsin and a second protein with a slightly higher migration velocity. The ratios of trypsin-inhibiting to chymotrypsin-inhibiting capacities in all the fractions were the same and both inhibitors were stable upon storage. The reaction of the inhibitors with trypsin and chymotrypsin was also demonstrated by analytical isoelectric focusing.The fractions obtained by preparative gel electrophoresis (the second method) contained the same proteins but their proportions varied widely in different fractions as demonstrated by analytical electrofocusing in the presence of urea and by SDS–PAGE. The early fractions, which consisted predominantly of α1-antitrypsin, showed a high inhibiting capacity for trypsin and none or only negligible capacity for chymotrypsin. Conversely, in the late fractions, the proportions of the proteins and inhibiting capacities were reversed. At 4 °C the trypsin-inhibiting capacity was stable for weeks but the chymotrypsin-inhibiting capacity of the preparation rapidly decreased.These observations indicate that the inhibition of proteases by goat α1-globulins is due to at least two closely associated but distinguishable proteins. One of these, corresponding to human α1-antitrypsin, would have an appreciable capacity to inhibit trypsin, but unlike the latter, little or no capacity for chymotrypsin inhibition. The inhibition of chymotrypsin is due to the second, unidentified α1-globulin.

SummaryTwo dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D SDS–PAGE) has been used to produce ‘fingerprint’ maps of the proteins from each of the 7 species of Eimeria which infect the chicken. All 7 species could be identified from their array of polypeptides but few differences were detected between strains of the same species. Alterations to the polypeptide array associated with the stage of sporulation of the oocysts were observed. lodination of sporozoites, 2D SDS–PAGE, autoradiography and immunoblotting techniques were combined to identify polypeptides with a surface moiety and those which were antigenic.

<em>Bahan<strong> </strong>baku untuk membuat baso adalah daging hewan, pada umumnya dari daging sapi, ayam, ikan dan babi. Di beberapa daerah di Indonesia terjadi kasus baso tikus. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menguji ada tidaknya kandungan daging tikus pada produk baso yang dijual di pasar Cempaka Putih-Kecamatan Kramat Jakarta Pusat dan di pedagang baso atau mie baso di sekitar kampus Universitas YARSI Jakarta. Daging adalah protein salah satu metode untuk mengidentifikasi protein adalah metode Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE).<strong> </strong>Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari 6 sampel baso terindikasi ada 2 sampel baso dengan nomor 1 dan 5 yang dibuat dari campuran daging sapi dan tikus; ada 1 sampel baso dengan nomor 6 yang terbuat dari daging tikus; dan 2 sampel baso dengan nomor 2 dan 3 yang terbuat dari campuran sapi  dan babi, dan hanya 1 sampel baso dengan nomor sampel 4 yang benar-benar terbuat dari daging sapi.</em>
