The molecular weight of recombinant human stem cell factor (SCF) was determined using a low-angle laser light scattering combined with a differential refractometer and a uv detector. The protein samples were applied to these detectors through a gel filtration column by a high-performance liquid chromatographic pump. The Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell-derived SCF gave a molecular weight of 53,000 for the entire molecule and 35,000 for the protein moiety only at pH 7.0, indicating that the CHO cell-derived protein is glycosylated by 34%. Since the molecular weight of the polypeptide is 18,600, the results demonstrate that the CHO cell-derived SCF forms a dimer. The molecular weight of Escherichia coli-derived SCF was determined to be 39,000, similar to the above value (35,000). Essentially identical molecular weights were obtained at pH 3.0, indicating no dissociation of the dimer.
