To accomplish this a circular stainless steel container with inner diameter equal to the inner diameter of the insert minus 5 mm was made. The reason for the smaller diameter was to allow for the thickness of the set of filters which lined the inner surface of the rotor insert. A rod attached to a flat circular metal slab closed a hole in the base of the cylinder by means of an 0 ring in the metal slab. To conduct a concentration experiment the surface of the 0 ring was covered lightly with silicon grease and inserted in the groove on the bottom of the metal slab.","PeriodicalId":20391,"journal":{"name":"Preparative biochemistry","volume":"23 1-2","pages":"79-80"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10826069308544539","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19352980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analysis by gel electrophoresis has identified two proteins from this partial purification with relative molecular weights of 45 and 90 kD. A crude receptor preparation was used to develop a ligand binding assay with radiolabeled (tritiated and iodinated) DCC1. Ligand binding was inhibited by 90% when excess unlabeled DCC1 was added to the assay mixture. Ligand binding was optimum at pH 7.5. Binding saturation occurred at approximately 12 picomole radiolabeled ligand concentration.
