    Abstract

    Conventional liquid chromatography on phosphocellulose (PC) can be used to separate tubulin and microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs). Tubulin is a highly acidic protein and thus does not bind to PC. MAPs, however, do bind to PC and can be eluted with a subsequent salt wash of the column.
