The Vicia angustifolia proteinase inhibitor was incubated with p-toluenesulfonyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone-trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4) and a main product was isolated. The purified product was different to the first trypsin-modified V. angustifolia inhibitor. The C-terminal residues of the new derivative were arginine, which was also the C-terminal of the cleaved antitryptic site; lysine was a newly exposed C-terminal. These results suggest that the new derivative lacks the C-terminal portion of the native inhibitor, which has asparagine at its C-terminus. The liberated C-terminal peptide had the following amino acid sequence: H-Glu-Glu-Val-Ile-Lys-Asn-OH. The derivative lacking the C-terminal hexapeptide still possesses inhibitory activities against trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin (EC 3.4.21.1), however, its antichymotryptic activity was inactivated by incubation with chymotrypsin at pH 8.0.

The hydration isotherms of alpha-chymotrypsin, lysozyme, pork insulin, pork pepsin and serum albumin were obtained by means of dynamic method. The values of BET-monolayers for processes of water sorption leads to (h) and desorption comes from (h) do not depend on the static or dynamic way of achieving of hydration equilibrium in spite of difference in the shape of isotherms. The values of comes from h for proteins with known tertiary structure (alpha-chymotrypsin, lysozyme and insulin) coinside with the number of exposed polar amino acid side chains. The lowering of leads to h values in comparison with comes from h is correlated with inability of omega-amido groups of Asn and Gln residues and of ion pair-forming residues to take part in the formation of sorptive BET-monolayer. These rules for the interpretation of hydration isotherms were used to evaluate the numbers of exposed and buried polar side chains in proteins with unknown tertiary structure--pepsin and serum albumin.

This paper presents the experimental details which led to the elucidation of the complete primary structure of S16, a protein which belongs to the small subunit of E. coli ribosomes. Protein S16 was digested with trypsin, alpha-chymotrypsin, and the staphylococcal protease. The resulting peptides were purified on paper and their amino acid composition and sequence were determined. Automatic Edman degradation with a modified sequenator on the complete protein yielded information from the 56N-terminal residues. The combination of all these results led to the following complete amino acid sequence: Met-Val-Thr-Ile-Arg-Leu-Ala-Arg-His-Gly-Ala-Lys-Lys-Arg-Pro-Phe-Tyr-Gln-Val-Val-Val-Ala-Asp-Ser-Arg--Asn-Ala-Arg-Asn-Gly-Arg-Phe-Ile-Glu-Arg-Val-Gly-Phe-Phe-Asn-Pro-Ile-Ala-Ser-Glu-Lys-Glu-Glu-Gly-Thr-Arg-Leu-Asp-Leu-Asp-Arg-Ile-Ala-His-Trp-Val-Gly-Gln-Gly-Ala-Thr-Ile-Ser-Asp-Arg-Val-Ala-Ala-Leu-Ile-Lys-Glu-Val-Asn-Lys-Ala-Ala. The molecular weight derived from the sequence amounts to 9 162.

The single polypeptide chain of about 460 amino acids of porcine pancreatic lipase (EC 3.1.1.3) has been fragmented into five peptides by cyanogen bromide cleavage [Rovery, M., Bianchetta, J. & Guidoni, A. (1973) Biochim. Biophys. Acta, 328, 391--395]. The sequence of the first three cyanogen bromide peptides (CNI, CNII, CNIII), including a total of 234 amino acids, was fully elucidated. Automatic or manual Edman degradation was performed on the different peptides. Fragmentations of the CN peptides were accomplished by digestions with trypsin (after citraconylation or 1,2-cyclohexanedione treatment), chymotrypsin and Staphylococcus aureus external protease. Hydrolysis of unreduced material by pepsin and thermolysin, performed in order to determine the S-S bridge positions, provided useful overlapping peptides. The glycan moiety of lipase is bound to Asn-166. The non-essential tyrosine specifically blocked by diisopropylphosphorofluoridate is Tyr-49 in a cluster of asparagine and glutamine residues. The existence of a highly hydrophobic sequence (206--217) at the C terminus of the CNII fragment is noteworthy.

The complete primary structure of the coat protein of strain VRU of alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) is reported. The strain is morphologically different from all other AMV strains as it contains large amounts of unusually long virus particles. This is caused by structural differences in the coat protein chain. The amino acid sequence has mainly been established by the characterization of peptides obtained after cleavage with cyanogen bromide and digestion with trypsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin or Staphylococcus aureus protease. The major sequencing technique used was the dansyl-Edman procedure. The VRU coat protein consists of 219 amino acid residues corresponding to a molecular weight of 24056. Compared to the coat protein of strain 425 [Van Beynum et al. (1977) Eur. J. Biochem. 72, 63-78], 15 amino acid substitutions were localized. Most of them have a conservative character and may be explained by single-point mutations. A correction is given for the AMV 425 coat protein: Asn-216 was shown to be Asp-216. The prediction of the secondary structure for the two viral coat proteins was not significantly influenced by the various amino acid substitutions except for the region containing residues 65-100. This led us to the hypothesis that the AMV coat protein may occur in two different conformations favouring its incorporation into either a pentagonal or hexagonal quasi-equivalent position in the lattice of the protein shell. The substitutions in the above-mentioned region of the VRU coat protein may have caused a strong preference for the hexagonal lattice conformation. The model is supported by preliminary sequence data of the same coat protein region in AMV 15/64, a strain morphologically intermediate between 425 and VRU.

Hydrolysis by chymotrypsin of bovine immunoglobulins (IgG1, type) isolated from colostral whey yields glycopeptides, structural studies of which lead to the following results. 1. IgG1 colostral immunoglobulins possess two glycan moieties which are linked to the peptidic chain by an N-(beta-aspartyl)-N-acetylglucosaminylamine bound. 2. The peptidic sequence is Asn (Glycan)-Ser-Thr-Tyr. 3. Application of partial acidic hydrolysis, periodic oxidation, hydrazinolysis-nitrous deamination, methylation and use of specific glycosidases lead to the determination of the following structure of the glycan moieties: (see article). These structures are related to the general glycan structure so-called of "N-acetyllactosamine type" because they possess the pentasaccharidic core common to numerous glycoproteins Man alpha (1 leads to 3) [Man alpha (1 leads to 6)] Man beta (1 leads to 4) GlcNAc beta (1 leads to 4) GlcNAc beta (leads to) Asn on which are conjugated two N-acetyllactosamine residues. They present a microheterogeneity which is due to the varying number of additional N-acetylneuraminic acid and fucose residues.

The C-terminal undecapeptide of ovine prolactin, H-Leu-Asn-Cys-Arg-Ile-Ile-Try-Asn-Asn-Asn-Cys-OH possesses several structural features common to protein proteinase inhibitors, yet has no inhibitor properties. The undecapeptide is completely hydrolysed by trypsin (Arg-Ile bond) and by chymotrypsin (Tyr-Asn bond), with a proteolytic coefficient of approximately 3,000 M-1 sec-1 and 240 M-1 sec-1 respectively. On the basis of these results, a consideration of entropy, and studies by other workers, we agree with the view of Nishino et al. that the best models for small synthetic peptides with inhibitor properties would be those naturally-occurring inhibitors whose reactive site is located within a small disulphide loop.

Bovine immunoglobulins (IgG1 type) have been isolated from colostral whey. Hydrolysis by pronase, trypsin and (or) chymotrypsin yield several glycopeptides structural studies of which lead to the following results. 1. IgG1 colostral immunoglobulins possess two glycan moieties which are linked to the peptidic chain by an N-(beta-aspartyl)-N-acetylglucosaminylamine bound. 2. The peptidic sequence around the linkage region has been determined by classical methods and is as follows: Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Glu-Glu-Gln-Phe-Asn(Glycan)-Ser-Thr-Tyr-Arg. 3. The following procedures: partial acidic hydrolysis, periodic oxidation, hydrazinolysis-nitrous deamination, methylation and use of specific glycosidases allowed us to determine the structure of the glycan moieties which fit with the general following scheme: (see article) Thus they could be related to the general glycan structure so-called of "N-acetyllactosamine type" because they possess the pentasaccharidic core common to numerous glycoproteins Man alpha 1 leads to [Man alpha 1 leads to 6] Man beta 1 leads to 4 GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 4 GlcNAc beta 1 leads to Asn on which are conjugated 2 N-acetyllactosamine residues. Besides they present a microheterogeneity which is due to the varying number of additional N-acetylneuraminic acid and fucose residues. 4. These structures are compared to various immunoglobulin structures proposed by others: bovine serum IgG and human serum IgG, IgE and IgA.

1. RNAase (ribonuclease) U2, a purine-specific RNAase, was reduced, aminoethylated and hydrolysed with trypsin, chymotrypsin and thermolysin. On the basis of the analyses of the resulting peptides, the complete amino acid sequence of RNAase U2 was determined, 2. When the sequence was compared with the amino acid sequence of RNAase T1 (EC 3.1.4.8), the following regions were found to be similar in the two enzymes; Tyr-Pro-His-Gln-Tyr (38-42) in RNAase U2 and Tyr-Pro-His-Lys-Tyr (38-42) in RNAase T1, Glu-Phe-Pro-Leu-Val (61-65) in RNAase U2 and Glu-Trp-Pro-Ile-Leu (58-62) in RNAase T1, Asp-Arg-Val-Ile-Tyr-Gln (83-88) in RNAase U2 and Asp-Arg-Val-Phe-Asn (76-81) in RNAase T1 and Val-Thr-His-Thr-Gly-Ala (98-103) in RNAase U2 and Ile-Thr-His-Thr-Gly-Ala (90-95) in RNAase T1. All of the amino acid residues, histidine-40, glutamate-58, arginine-77 and histidine-92, which were found to play a crucial role in the biological activity of RNAase T1, were included in the regions cited here. 3. Detailed evidence for the amino acid sequence of the sequence of the proteins has been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50041 (33 PAGES) AT THE British Library (Lending Division)(formerly the National Lending Library for Science and Technology), Boston Spa, Yorks. LS23 7BQ, U.K., from whom copies can be obtained on the terms indicated in Biochem. J. (1975), 145, 5.

The amino acid sequence for vitamin D-dependent bovine intestinal calcium binding protein has been established. It contains 85 amino acids in a single chain and lacks cysteine, tryptophan, methionine, histidine, and arginine. The NH2-terminal lysine is blocked by an N-acetyl group. Enzymatic digestion with trypsin, chymotrypsin, and pepsin yielded a number of peptides which were purified by two-dimensional high voltage paper electrophoresis. These peptides were examined by end group analysis and sequenced by the dansyl procedure. The absence of tryptophan permitted by a single cleavage of the molecule by N-bromosuccinimide at the tyrosine residue at position 8 and the larger fragment was subjected to automated Edman degradation. By these means, the following sequence was established: N-Ac-Lys-Gln-Ser-Pro-Leu-Glu-Tyr-Ala-Ala-Glu-Lys-Ser-Ile-Gln-Lys-Glu-Ile-Glu-Lys-Gly-Phe-Phe-Lys-Gln-Leu-Leu-Val-Ser-Val-Gln-Lys-Ala-Gly-Asp-Lys-Glu-Ser-Leu-Gln-Pro-Leu-Phe-Thr-Leu-Leu-Lys-Ser-Gly-Pro-Glu-Glu-Asn-Leu-Lys-Glu-Ser-Gln-Asn-Gly-Pro-Asp-Leu-Ls7-Ser-Gly-Pro-Gly-Asn-Asp-Leu-Glu-Glu-Lys-Gly-Thr-Asp-Val-Phe-Ser-Leu-Lys-Gln. Microheterogeneity may exist in the molecule at residue 76 in which position threonine may be replaced by serine. Comparison of the sequence of calcium-binding protein to the "test" sequence of Tufty and Kretsinger ((1975) Science 187, 167-169) proposed to identify E-F hands in muscle proteins suggests that intestinal calcium-binding protein may likewise contain one or possibly two E-F hands which could account for calcium-binding property. Dayhoff alignment scores, however, calculated for calcium-binding protein against nine E-F hands in muscle proteins parvalbumin, troponin and alkali light chains do not indicate that intestinal calcium-binding protein is homologous to these muscle protein chains.
