Sažetak

A method was developed for the isolation of cathepsin D by
affinity chromatography on immobilized pepstatin. This inhibitor
was coupled to agarose by water soluble carbodiimide. Further
purification included gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. The obtained
cathepsin D exists in three active forms which were resolved on
DEAE cellulose. Electrophoresis in the presence of sodium. dodecyl
sulphate revealed that the first form consists of only one polypeptide
chain having molecular weight 42 000. The second and the third
form contain also polypeptides having molecular weight 27 000
and 14 000.
