Abstract
Pseudorenin and cathepsin D activity from bovine spleen were found to behave identically on DEAE-cellulose, Sephadex G-100, and concanavalin A-agarose chromatography. The molecular weight of pseudorenin and of cathepsin D was estimated to be 50,000. The binding of the enzymatic activity to concanavalin A-agarose and elution with α-methyl-d-mannoside indicates that pseudorenin (cathepsin D) is a glycoprotein. It is suggested that pseudorenin activity in the spleen is due to cathepsin D.
