Electrophoretic analysis of the plasma and urinary proteins and the ceruloplasmin oxidase activity of heterozygous tortoiseshell (moto/+) female mice (Mus musculus)

Abstract

1. 1. The plasma and urinary proteins of two strains of normal (+/+) and heterozygous tortoiseshell (Moto/+) female mice were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). 2. 2. The plasma ceruloplasmin oxidase activity of +/+ and Moto/+ female mice was determined by light spectrophotometry. 3. 3. The plasma proteins (e.g. transferrin, albumins, ceruloplasmin) and major urinary proteins (MUPs) of +/+ and Moto/+ female mice of both strains investigated exhibited identical electrophoretic patterns. 4. 4. The plasma ceruloplasmin oxidase activity of +/+ female mice was consistently higher than that of Moto/+ female mice. © 1982.
