The Z protein fraction of rat liver cytosol contains one or more proteins which have been associated with organic anion transport, fatty acid metabolism, and aminoazodye binding. To study the possible identity of these proteins and investigate their function, Z was purified using ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel filtration, and preparative isoelectric focusing. Three protein fractions were obtained (pI5.2, 6.0, 7.3) which reacted specifically with anti-Z IgG. These three fractions were homogenous as determined by several electrophoretic systems. Monospecific antibody prepared against two of the proteins cross-reacted specifically with all three. Each fraction bound BSP with different affinity; acidic Z bound the least BSP. The molecular weight of each fraction was 12,500 as determined by SDS-gel electrophoresis. Amino acid analyses of the three Z protein bands were virtually identical. Heterogeneity in Z probably results from interaction of the protein with ampholytes or exogenous ligands.
