    Abstract

    Catechol-o-methyltransferase from human placenta was purified 1400-fold by hydroxyapatite adsorption, ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration, high performance anion- exchange and reversed-phase chromatography. The purified enzyme has an apparent molecular weight of 26.000, an isoelectric point of 5,3 and is activated ten-fold in the presence of 20mM cysteine. The enzyme shows primary structure homology to the corresponding rat liver soluble enzyme, based on the sequenced tryptic peptides.
