Abstract

Preparation of a soluble extract of bovine kidney cortex plasma membranes with Triton X-100 is described. Interaction of this extract with tritiated parathyroid hormone was detected using three distinct binding assays: gel filtration chromatography, precipitation of bound hormone with polyethylene glycol, and adsorption of free hormone with microfine silica. The binding of parathyroid hormone to the component(s) in the extract was highly specific and sensitive to competition by purified native parathyroid hormone and synthetic (1-34) bovine parathyroid hormone. Inactivation of the tritiated parathyroid hormone by oxidation led to loss of its binding activity.
