Physicochemical property of bovine brain 73-kDa stress protein

• 1.1. An approximately 70-kDa protein was purified from bovine brain using an ATP-Sepharose column.
• 2.2. The protein sample was found to contain two proteins (major 73 kDa and minor 72 kDa) on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.
• 3.3. Antibodies raised against the 73- and 72-kDa proteins cross-reacted with stress-induced HSP73 and HSP72 from HeLa cells, respectively.
• 4.4. Heparin-binding peptides were obtained from trypsin digests of HSP73.
