Enzymatic method for radiolabelling vertebrate vitellogenin
Journal Article

· Anal. Biochem.; (United States)
Phosphoprotein kinases from Xenopus and chicken liver have been purified and these enzymes have been used to label Xenopus vitellogenin, a phosphoprotein, to high specific activity with (..gamma..-/sup 32/P)ATP. The enzymes were isolated by (NH/sub 4/)/sub 2/SO/sub 4/ fractionation followed by chromatography on DE-52 cellulose and phosphocellulose. This procedure resulted in greater than 20,000-fold enrichment for the enzymes. Both enzyme preparations were used to selectively label vitellogenin in the serum of estrogen-treated animals. Thus, isolation of the vitellogenin prior to radiolabeling was not necessary. The (/sup 32/P)vitellogenin labeled in situ was incorporated by oocytes at a rate similar to (/sup 32/P)vitellogenin labeled in vivo, was translocated to the yolk platelets, and was correctly processed into the yolk proteins.
