Thyroglobulin obtained from guinea pigs was examined by Na dodecyl-SO4-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis after reduction and alkylation. In contrast to thyroglobulin from other mammalian sources, only three groups of polypeptide chains accounted for 95% or more of the protein. Determinations of the molecular weights of these purified proteins by equilibrium centrifugation in 6 M guanidine HCl gave values of 295,000 (species A), 210,000 (species B), and 110,000 (species C). Molecular weights determined by gel filtration in 6 M guanidine HCl gave similar results. Due to the large size of the polypeptides, satisfactory molecular weights could not be obtained from Na dodecyl-SO4-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Amino acid analysis of the three species was similar to that of whole thyroglobulin. Only slightly higher level of lysine and histidine and a lower level of glutamic acid were seen in species C. The iodine contents were found to range from 0.07 to 0.12 to 0.20% for species A, B, and C, respectively.
