A colony-stimulating factor (CSF) has been purified to homogeneity from the serum-free medium conditioned by one of the human CSF-producing tumor cell lines, CHU-2. The molecule was a hydrophobic glycoprotein (mol. wt 19,000, pI = 6.1 as asialo form) with possible O-linked glycosides. Amino acid sequence determination of the molecule gave a single NH2-terminal sequence which had no homology to the corresponding sequence of the other CSFs previously reported. The biological activity was apparently specific for a neutrophilic granulocyte-lineage of both human and mouse bone marrow cells with a specific activity of 2.7 .times. 108 colonies/105 non-adherent human bone marrow cells/mg protein. The purified CSF can be regarded as a G-CSF of human origin and will become a useful material for investigation of regulatory mechanisms of human granulopoiesis.
