摘要:Activity of a trypsin-sensitive acid deoxyribonuclease (DNase) inhibitor has been detected in 13- to 21-day-old embryonic chicken brains and in clonal lines of neuroblastoma cells (adrenergic, N1E-115, and neurotransmitter-inactive, N-18) grown for 48 hr after subculture. The activities of purified porcine and bovine spleen DNases were inhibited 60--75% in the presence of the inhibitor, whereas less than 10% inhibition was observed with purified pancreatic DNase. Activities of an acidic DNase and its inhibitor reached maxima in 21-day-old embryonic chicken brain. The proteins were separated by isoelectric focusing and affinity column chromatographic techniques. The pI values of the acid DNase and its inhibitor were 5.4 and 4.2, respectively.
