摘要:A cellular protein of apparent Mr 34,000--36,000 was suggested as a possible physiological substrate for the protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37 ) activity associated with the transforming gene product of Rous sarcoma virus. We find this protein to migrate with an apparent Mr of 38,000 in NaDodSO4/polyacrylamide gels. It was not separable from cytosolic malic dehydrogenase activity when purified by chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, hydroxylapatite, poly(A)-Sepharose, and blue Sepharose, by gel filtration, and by isoelectric focusing. The Mr 38,000 protein as well as cytosolic malic dehydrogenase activity focused with a pI of 7.5. In gel filtration experiments, both displayed an apparent native Mr of 68,000. The male dehydrogenase activity contained in homogeneous preparations of the Mr 38,000 protein had a specific activity of up to 130 units/mg of protein. The recovery of the enzyme was 5--10% of the activity in the extract. Antiserum against the Mr 38,000 protein inactivated the malic dehydrogenase activity associated with the Mr 38,000 protein.
