A method to obtain C1r, a subunit of the first complement component, in a highly purified state has been described for the first time. The stepwise method starts with a neutral euglobulin precipitation, after diethylaminoethyl- and carboxymethyl-cellulose chromatography and a final preparative polyacrylamide electrophoresis step. Such C1r preparations are devoid of C1q and C1s activities and show only one protein band on analytic polyacrylamide electrophoresis. Rabbits injected with this preparation produced antisera showing only one precipitation band. The stability of C1r activity was determined under different conditions, and C1r was found to be labile at 37 degrees C, pH 7-8 and low ionic strength. The electrophoretic mobility of purified C1r is that of a beta-globulin on disc acrylamide electrophoresis and on agarose electrophoresis at pH 8.6. Its molecular weight as estimated by sephadex chromatography is 168,100.A sensitive hemolytic assay based on the property of C1r to link C1s to C1q and thereby to generate macromolecular C[unk]1 is described. The number of C[unk]1 molecules generated is stoichiometrically related to the concentration of C1r for a fixed C1q and C1s concentration provided that the titration is carried out below the plateau zone. Macromolecular C1 can be separated from free C1s as the former is cell bound. This method of purification and assay should allow the development of monospecific antisera and further chemical study of C1r.
