In vitro translation of human pheochromocytoma messenger RNAs: characterization of tyrosine-hydroxylase and dopamine-beta-hydroxylase.

abstract：:So far, no efficient affinity chromatography for CCK receptor purification has been reported that prevented obtention of sequenceable amounts of purified receptor. In this work, 10% of plasma membrane receptor sites were specifically cross-linked with the photoreactive cleavable agonist 125I-ASD-[Thr28, Ahx31]-CCK-25-...
