Pig brain was found to contain two calpain-specific, heat-stable inhibitory fractions which could be separated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. CS-0.1, which was eluted from the column at 0.1 M NaCl, was identified as an ordinary, well-known calpastatin. CS-0.2, eluted at 0.2 M NaCl, was different from CS-0.1 in that it inhibited calpain 1 more strongly than calpain II and that it did not cross-react with anti-calpastatin antibodies. Partial purification indicated that CS-0.2 contained inhibitor proteins smaller than ordinary calpastatin, but whether they are the products derived from CS-0.1 or entirely different genetic products has not yet been determined.
