Popis: Vitamin K-dependent carboxylase from bovine liver contains phospholipid (primarily phosphatidylcholine), which is essential for its in vitro activity. Sepharose-bound carboxylase can be depleted of phospholipids, either by washing the enzyme with detergents or by phospholipase treatment. The enzyme can be reconstituted by adding mixed micelles of phosphatidylcholine and cholate to the Sepharose-bound proteins.
