Elution of bound protein from immobilized VEGF.
125I-fibrinogen (1.0 mg/mL) was passed through a 1-mL column of Sepharose-immobilized VEGF. Following washing, the column was eluted with 2 mg/mL unlabeled fibrinogen, and fractions of 200 μL were collected. Approximately 90% of the bound radioactivity eluted in fraction 10 to 12. These fractions were pooled, and an aliquot was electrophoresed on a 7% SDS-PAGE gel and used to prepare autoradiograms (inset). The polypeptide chain pattern in the eluted pool showed Aα, Bβ, and γ chains of fibrinogen and was similar to that in the starting material.
