abstractText | A novel protein (p34) was observed in polyacrylamide gel fluorographs of gestation day 13 embryonic mouse brain following retinoic acid dosing of dams. Another p34 polypeptide with identical gel migratory characteristics was seen in the hypothalamus of old caloric restricted rats after food deprivation stress. Western blotting, employing an ultramicro trans-blot cell developed in our laboratory, detected identical immunochemical determinants between these proteins, verifying their homology. Peptide mapping and Western blotting further validated the uniqueness of p34 compared with other stress proteins including heme oxygenase. |
