RESUMO
The binding of phytochrome to Cibacron Blue 3GA was utilized to develop a new affinity purification procedure for phytochrome. Brushite-purified phytochrome from rye (Secale cereale c.v. Cougar) was bound to agarose-immobilized blue dye in 0.1 molar potassium phosphate (pH 7.8), contaminating proteins washed out with 0.5 molar KCl, and homogeneous phytochrome eluted with 10 millimolar flavin mononucleate. Ninety-five per cent of the phytochrome applied bound, and 60 to 65% was eluted, giving a 25 to 30% yield for the complete one-day procedure. Affinity-purified rye phytochrome was identical to conventionally purified phytochrome in its behavior on sodium dodecyl sulfate gels, in gel exclusion chromatography, in sedimentation in sucrose density gradients and in its spectral properties.
