  • Title: The NADP-dependent trifunctional methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase purified from mouse liver is immunologically distinct from the mouse NAD-dependent [corrected] bifunctional enzyme.

    Abstract:
    Methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase - methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase - formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase was purified to homogeneity from mouse liver, taking advantage of its very high affinity for 2',5'-ADP-Sepharose. Antibodies raised to this trifunctional enzyme and to the bifunctional NAD-dependent dehydrogenase-cyclohydrolase from mouse Ehrlich ascites tumour cells were found not to cross-react with the purified proteins on Western blots. Each of these polyclonal antibodies detects the appropriate protein in extracts of Ehrlich ascites tumour cells after sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electrophoretic transfer of the proteins to nitrocellulose. The procedure has also been used to obtain a purified preparation of the trifunctional enzyme from human liver obtained at autopsy.
