Low Molecular Weight γ-Globulins of Urine and Plasma and their Relation to 7S γ2-Globulin

Abstract

IN the work recorded here, 1–3S γ-globulins from human urine1, human plasma 3S γ-globulins2, human plasma 7S γ2-globulin and the S and F fragments obtained by papain hydrolysis of the 7S γ2-globulin3 were compared immunochemically and by means of peptide patterns.
