In this work we describe a method for purification of the beta subunit of the mouse fibronectin receptor (GP135). Cellular glycoproteins were isolated from a detergent extract of SR-Balb tumor cell membranes by two steps of affinity chromatography on lentil lectin-Sepharose and wheat-germ-agglutinin--agarose. This material was subsequently bound to an Affi gel 102 column and eluted by increasing salt concentration. Most of the GP135 was eluted at 80 mM sodium chloride together with a few other components. A final step of hydroxyapatite chromatography in sodium dodecyl sulphate allowed elution of GP135 as a single chromatographic peak. Fractions containing GP135 were identified at each chromatographic step by immunoblotting with a specific antiserum. By this procedure GP135 was purified to homogeneity as judged by SDS-PAGE analysis of 125I-labelled material.

Abstract
In this work we describe a method for purification of the beta subunit of the mouse fibronectin receptor (GP135). Cellular glycoproteins were isolated from a detergent extract of SR-Balb tumor cell membranes by two steps of affinity chromatography on lentil lectin-Sepharose and wheat-germ-agglutinin--agarose. This material was subsequently bound to an Affi gel 102 column and eluted by increasing salt concentration. Most of the GP135 was eluted at 80 mM sodium chloride together with a few other components. A final step of hydroxyapatite chromatography in sodium dodecyl sulphate allowed elution of GP135 as a single chromatographic peak. Fractions containing GP135 were identified at each chromatographic step by immunoblotting with a specific antiserum. By this procedure GP135 was purified to homogeneity as judged by SDS-PAGE analysis of 125I-labelled material.
