Comparative study of ferritins from dove Columba oena and chicken Gallus domesticus livers
Abstract:
A comparative study of ferritin from the liver of doves and chicken has been carried out. In both cases, the molecular weight, the number of iron atoms bounded to the protein and composition of amino acids were determined. The ferritins were isolated by the Luxton method. The identification of both proteins was carried out by acrylamide gel electrophoresis. Ferritin from the dove showed two bands while that from the chicken only one.
