Abstract

Bovine angiogenin (bAng) is a potent blood vessel inducing protein purified from cow milk. Fluorescence spectroscopy has been used to study the interaction of bAng with actin in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, and 1 mM CaCl$_2$ at 25$^{\circ}C$. Actin contains four tryptophans but bAng contains no tryptophans. A 50% decrease in intrinsic fluorescence accompanied formation of the bAng/actin complex. (omitted)
