A Factor That Prevents EDTA-Induced Cell-Growth Inhibition; Purification of Transthyretin from Chick Embryo Brain

摘要

we previously reported the inhibition of cell-growth in Neuro-2A cells, mouse neuroblastoma, by Zn~2+ chelation with EDTA. This paper describes the purification of a factor that prevents EDTA-Induced cell-growth inhibition from chick embryo brain. The purified factor has a molecular mass of 16 kDa on SDS- polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reducing conditions.
