Summary, in English

We have identified several transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) binding proteins in solubilized and glycoprotein-enriched porcine uterus membrane fractions by affinity cross-linking and in-gel ligand binding using 125I-labeled TGF-beta 1. By a ligand affinity chromatography using a column of immobilized recombinant TGF-beta 1, four components of apparent molecular weights 160,000, 80,000, 50,000, and 40,000 under reducing conditions were eluted at a pH of 3.5; the 160-,80-, and 40-kDa components were demonstrated to bind TGF-beta 1 specifically by the 125I-TGF-beta 1 binding assays. Further purification was performed by gel chromatography using a Superose 12 column eluted in 70% formic acid. The 40-kDa component was purified to an apparently homogenous form, whereas the 160-kDa component eluted in a broad peak overlapping the peak of the 80-kDa component. It remains to be elucidated whether these TGF-beta 1 binding proteins are related to cell surface receptors for TGF-beta s.
