Abstract
Phospholipase C from rat cerebral cortex was purified to homogeneity by use of DEAE Bio-Gel A agarose, hydroxyapatite, and heparin agarose chromatography. The purified phospholipase C (PLC) was purified 622.4-fold and its molecular weight is estimated to be 97,500. We obtained a final specific activity of 3.112 mumol of phosphatidylinositol hydrolyzed/min/mg of protein. It is specific for inositol phospholipids. The purified enzyme has an apparent optimum pH 7.0. Calcium is required for its activity. Western blotting analysis showed that two proteins were recognized by anti-PLC antiserum.
