Abstract:
:The dimeric forms of metallothionein were isolated from livers of rabbits which accumulated cadmium in large quantities. The dimers were separated into three isoproteins, both on a DEAE Sephadex A-25 column and on a gel permeation column. Reduction of each dimer with mercaptoethanol yielded monomeric metallothionein-I, an equivalent mixture of metallothionein-I and -II, and metallothionein-II. The three isoproteins were identified as a dimer of metallothionein-I, a dimer of metallothionein-I and -II, and a dimer of metallothionein-II, respectively.
