Purification of antineoplastic factor from eggs of a sea hare [PDF]
An antineoplastic factor inducing tumor lysis was purified to apparent homogeneity from the supernatant of a homogenate of eggs of the sea hare Aplysia kwodai. On gel filtration, the purified substance gave a single band of material of 250 kDa containing 3 different subunits and this band coincided with cytolytic activity.
