Ceruloplasmin is the best known but least understood copper protein. Studies preliminary to investigating the control of ceruloplasmin synthesis have utilized a human renal cell carcinoma maintained in nude mice for 73 passages over a 5-year period. In vitro cultures of these cells were accomplished and the mRNAs were extracted prior to microinjection into Xenopus oocytes. The media examined by SE-HPLC and immunological techniques demonstrated that (1) after in vitro culture, ceruloplasmin was secreted as an uncleaved polypeptide chain with a MW of 135,000; (2) the translational product of ceruloplasmin mRNA injected into Xenopus oocytes was cleaved into fragments with MWs of 110,000, 67,000, and 50,000. The results indicate that mRNA for human ceruloplasmin can be obtained to serve as a template for the synthesis of a cDNA probe to investigate the control of human ceruloplasmin's synthesis.
