Nucleolar localization of protein B23 (375.1) by immunocytochemical techniques

Highly acidic phosphoprotein B23 ($\text{37}\text{5.1}\text{;}\text{M.W. x}\text{10}{}^3\text{/}\text{pI}$) which is in preribosomal RNP particles in nucleoli of Novikoff hepatoma cells (1) was found to be one of the two major silver staining nucleolar proteins (2). An improved isolation method was developed for protein B23 which included 4 M urea/3 M LiCl extraction of nucleoli, dialysis of the extract against 4 M urea/20 mM Tris-malate/pH 5.5 and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. For studies on cellular localization of this protein, highly purified protein B23 was used to produce anti- B23 antibodies in rabbits. The specificity of the anti- B23 antibodies was demonstrated by formation of immunoprecipitin bands with the purified antigen and crude nucleolar extracts from Novikoff hepatoma cells. With the indirect peroxidase immunostaining method, a specific localization of protein B23 was demonstrated in the nucleoli of normal rat liver, thioacetamide-treated rat liver and Novikoff hepatoma cells.     

Regulating Consent to Organ and Embryo Donation The Legal Dimensions of the Problem

As rational adults, we are free to elect what is (or is not) done to our bodies. However, this strong freedom does not extend to the borders of life. Control over the uses of our biological material is constrained and uncertain at law. Our article examines the legal condition of embryos and organs: how law conceptualises them and regulates their uses.
