ISOLATION AND COMPOSITION OF AVIAN EGG YOLK GRANULES AND THEIR CONSTITUENT α- AND β-LIPOVITELLINS

Burley, R. W., Cook, W. H.·1961·Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Physiology

Abstract

The yolk granules from hen's egg represent on a dry basis 23% of the yolk solids, and they contain about 90% of the protein phosphorus, 95% of the iron, and nearly 70% of the calcium in yolk. Ultracentrifugal and other analyses on solutions of the granules show that they are 70% α- and β-lipovitellin in an approximate ratio of 1:1.8, 16% phosvitin, and 12% low-density lipoprotein. The properties and composition of the two lipovitellins isolated from the granules are the same as those isolated from solutions of whole yolk. Further purification reduces the protein phosphorus in α-lipovitellin to 0.50% and in β-lipovitellin to 0.27%, and this confirms that α-vitellin has a higher phosphorus content. Experiments at low temperature suggest that phosvitin exists in the granules as a high molecular weight complex.

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.
