    Abstract:
    A group of proteins migrating to the anode at pH 8.6 under polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was revealed in the total protein of non-dissociated KCl-washed pea seed ribosomes. No proteins with an isoelectric point below pH 4.2 Were found. The presence of acidic proteins in 80 S ribosomes is due to the presence of a specific set of relatively acidic proteins in the total protein of large (5 major and 10 minor components) and small (2 major and 4 minor components) subunits. The mostly acidic proteins are located in the large subunit. The acidic proteins of 60S and 40S subunits are represented by the polypeptide chains with molecular weights from 48 000 to 13 000. The acidic proteins are present in the ribosomes studied in considerably less number than the basic proteins, and the former produce a very weak staining under electrophoretic analysis as compared with the latter. The data obtained suggest that 80S ribosomes of higher plants differ from animal ribosomes by a higher content of relatively acidic proteins.
