ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides for a new polypeptide and a method for producing the same. The polypeptide has a molecular weight of approximately 30,000 daltons as a dimer and a monomer molecular weight of about 15,000 daltons, an isoelectric pH of about 4.47 and an activity of at least 21,000 units per milligram of protein in the monomer or dimer state. The preferred method comprises chromatographing a crude polypeptide-containing medium on a dextran derived chromatography column; precipitating the eluate in a water-ethanol solution; electrophoresing the precipitate in a polyacrylamide gel; and chromatographing the extract on a reverse phase-high performance liquid chromatography column.
