Abstract
A natriuretic factor has been described in the specific granules of rat atria. We have purified three factors which seem to be low-Mr peptides. They have been purified by means of acid extraction, octadecyl Sep-Pak cartridges, and chromatography on Bio-Gel P-10, CM Bio-Gel A, Mono S and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography columns. The factors contain 26, 31 and 33 amino acids and may have been partially degraded during isolation. They are all 3 biologically active and the shorter one is the most active with a specific activity of 450 000 units/mg.Entities:
