Rat Brain Microtubule Protein: Purification and Determination of Covalently Bound Phosphate and Carbohydrate

Open access
Eipper, Betty A.·1972·Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences

Abstract

Microtubule protein purified from rat brain by published procedures contains nucleic acid and carbohydrate contaminants. Microtubule protein isolated from the soluble fraction of rat brain homogenates by a new procedure contains no covalently bound amino sugars and no more than 0.2% neutral sugar, but does contain covalently bound phosphate. Total phosphate analysis of rat brain microtubule protein indicates the presence of 0.8 mol of phosphate per mol of protein dimer (110,000 g). The presence of covalently bound phosphate has been confirmed by preparation of 32 P-labeled microtubule protein from rat brain slices maintained in tissue culture in the presence of [ 32 P]orthophosphate. Furthermore, phosphorylation is specific to the more negatively charged microtubule protein subunit. 32 P-Labeled serine phosphate has been identified after partial acid hydrolysis of labeled microtubule protein.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
