Identification and Isolation of Juvenile Hormone Binding Protein from Hemolyrnph of Lymantria dispar L.

매미나방(Lymantria dispar)에서 Juvenile Hormone Binding Protein(JHBP)의 확인 및 정체

Juvenile honnone binding protein (JHBP) was identified in the last instar larval hemolymph of Lymantria dispar using dextran coated charcoal (DCC) binding assay and gel filtration. The p1 value of JHBP was estimated to be 5.3. JHBP was partially pudfied by polyethylene glycol(PEG) precipitation, DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration, and was confirmed by DCC binding assay.

매미나방 종령유층 혈림프내에 존재하는 JHBP을 Dextran Coated Charcoal (DCC)binding assay와 gel filtration에 의해서 확인하였고, JHBP의 pI값은 5.3으로 밝혀졌다. JHBP의 정저는 혈림프단백질을 먼저 PEG로 침전시킨 후 ion exchange chromatography와 gel filtration 방법을 통하여 행하였다. 정체된 fraction의 JH에 대한 binding activity는 [3H] JH-III의 radioactivity 측정과 DCC binding assay를 통해 확인하였고, 정체된 단백질의 순수도는 각 정체단계에 따라 전지영동을 하여 확인하였다.
