Abstract

This study is part of a more general investigation of the metal binding activity of conalbumin, which is an egg-white protein comprising about 12 percent of the total solids of egg white.More specifically, this study is concerned with two aspects of its biochemistry: first, its isolation and purification from egg white, employing a new and rapid cellulose-cation-exchanger method; and second, the relative stabilities of conalbumin and transferrin and their metal complexes to the action of the proteolytic enzymes and to heat denaturation.
