TL;DR: A major component of rat VLDL of 35 000 molecular weight appears similar or identical to the arginine-rich protein in rat HDL by every criterion employed for their characterization.
Abstract: Purified fractions of three major rat high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and one rat very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) were isolated by Sephadex gel chromatography or preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. These proteins were characterized by amino acid analysis, end-group analysis, molecular-weight determination, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and circular dichroism. One of these rat proteins, of molecular weight 27 000, appears to be homologous with the human A-I protein. However, rat HDL possesses two additional major components not reported in human HDL - an arginine-rich protein of molecular weight 35 000 and a protein of molecular weight 46 000. The arginine-rich protein of the rat is similar in size and amino acid analysis to the arginine-rich protein reported in human VLDL. A major component of rat VLDL of 35 000 molecular weight appears similar or identical to the arginine-rich protein in rat HDL by every criterion employed for their characterization.

TL;DR: Purification data indicate that this protein accounts for 10.2% of the total protein of the supernatant fraction of rat brain homogenate, in good agreement with the amount found for tubulin by the [3H]colchicine-binding method.
Abstract: The product of the incorporation of [14C]tyrosine as single unit into a protein of the soluble fraction of rat brain homogenate was purified by following a procedure used to purify tubulin. Sodium dodecylsulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified material showed a single protein band containing all the radioactivity. Purification data indicate that this protein accounts for 10.2% of the total protein of the supernatant fraction. This is in good agreement with the amount found for tubulin by the [3H]colchicine-binding method (10.5% of the total protein). The incorporated [14C]-tyrosine was found in the alpha-subunit of tubulin. Protein labelled with [3H]colchicine and [14C]tyrosine was precipatated with vinblastine sulphate and the radioactivity of 3H and that of 14C were quantitatively recovered in the precipitate (98%). Sodium dodecylsulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the vinblastine precipitate showed that the 14C radioactivity moved with the tubulin band. Results obtained in experiments with phenylalanine and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine were identical to those obtained for tyrosine. Bineing of colchicine did not interfere with the incorporation of tyrosine. About 30% of tubulin from rat brain supernatant fraction can incorporate tyrosine as single unit.

TL;DR: Endoglucanase and cellobiohydrolase components of thermophilic cellulases can be detected in situ after gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate by incorporating a mixed linkage beta-glucan (barley beta- glucan, lichenan) in the separation gel.
