We have purified urease from the Mollicutes, Ureaplasma urealyticum, using high performance liquid chromatography methods and DEAE-Sephadex chromatography. While only small amounts of material could be utilized in these methods, urease was purified at least 180-fold, yield a major band on SDS-PAGE of 66,000 daltons, a minor band of 64,000 daltons, and several faint bands of lower molecular mass. These results suggest that the 380,000 dalton intact urease is a pentamer or hexamer of these two larger subunits. The highly purified urease from DEAE-Sephadex retained full activity for at least 20 days at 4 degrees C in sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.2) with 1% bovine serum albumin. The estimated specific activity of the DEAE peak fractions, 180 IU/micrograms, is at least 90-fold greater than that of jack bean urease.
