Abstract
Mouse bone collagenase was found to be tightly bound to a heparin-substituted gel at low ionic strength. The bond was reversible, however, and the collagenase could be elutted at high ionic strength. In addition to providing a method for purifying the enzyme with high yield, the results suggest that the strong ionic bond between heparin and collagenase may partially explain the mechanism wherein heparin enhances the activity of mouse bone collagenase.Entities:
