Chromatographic Studies on Picornavirus Capsid Polypeptides

Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York 10021, U.S.A. Clinical Research Centre, Harrow, Middlesex HA1 3UJ, England

The polypeptides of encephalomyocarditis, Mouse-Elberfeld and type 5 rhinoviruses behave similarly when chromatographed on calcium phosphate (brushite), each being eluted by a linear phosphate buffer gradient containing sodium dodecyl sulphate in three major peaks, C1, C2 and C3. Analysis of the peaks by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis suggests that the major capsid polypeptides of these three picornaviruses elute in the order: (peak C1), with (peak C2) and (peak C3).
