Multiple selenocysteine content of selenoprotein P in rats
1990
Motchnik, P.A. | Tappel, A.L.
Partially purified selenoprotein P from rat plasma was digested with either trypsin, endoprotease Lys-C, or endoprotease Arg-C and analyzed by high pressure liquid chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Several 75Se-labeled peptides were detected. The moles of selenium in selenoprotein P were estimated based on the 75Se content of the 75Se-labeled peptide fragments. Using this method, selenoprotein P was shown to contain approximately 9 moles of selenium. This is the first report of a selenoprotein containing more than one selenium per polypeptide. These findings support the proposed function of this protein in selenium transport.
