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.

Ribosomal proteins S7 from 30S subunits of Escherichia coli strains K and B differ extensively in their aminoacid compositions. The experimental details which led to the determination of the complete primary structures of proteins S7K and S7B are presented. Protein S7K consists of a single polypeptide chain of 177 aminoacids giving a calculated molecular weight of 19, 732, whereas protein S7B has 153 residues which amount to a molecular weight of 17,131. Aminoacid sequences were determined by a combination of automated Edman degradation of the intact proteins in a modified Beckman sequenator and sequencing of peptides obtained by digestion with trypsin. Staphylococcus aureus protease, thermolysin and pepsin, either by solid-phase Edman degradation or by dansyl-Edman degradation. Additional information about the primary structure was derived from peptides resulting from chemical cleavages of the protein by 2-(2-nitrophenyl-sulphenyl)-3-methyl 3' bromoindolenine at its tryptophanyl bonds and by cyanogen bromide at its methionyl bonds leading to large fragments. The mutational event occurring between S7B and S7K was characterized. Protein S7K contains an additional sequence of 24 aminoacids at its C-terminal end. The aminoacid sequence of both proteins S7K and S7B was compared to the published sequences of the other ribosomal proteins of Escherichia coli and predictions for the secondary structure of these proteins were made.

The primary structure of protein L21 from the 50S subunit of Escherichia coli ribosomes has been completely determined by sequencing the peptides obtained by digestion of L21 with trypsin before and after modification of the arginine residues with 1,2-cyclohexanedione, Staphylococcus aureus protease, thermolysin, and pepsin. Automated Edman degradation using a liquid-phase sequenator was carried out on the intact protein as well as on a fragment arising from cleavage with cyanogen bromide. Protein L21 consists of a single polypeptide chain of 103 amino acids of molecular weight 11 565. An estimation of the secondary structure of protein L21 and a comparison with other E. coli ribosomal protein sequences are presented.

The amino acid sequence of the heavy-chain variable region of the human immunoglobulin. New has been determined. Since the amino terminus of the heavy chain was blocked, the sequence of residues 1-69 was established by digesting the appropriate CNBr fragment separately with trypsin, chymotrypsin, and thermolysin and sequencing the resulting peptides. The region from residues 70 to 120 was present in another CNBr fragment which was submitted directly to automatic Edman degradation. The result of this experiment extended the sequence to residue 100. The primary structure of the remaining portion of the VH region was determined by automatic Edman degradation of a lysine-blocked tryptic peptide derived from this region which included residues 98-214. The sequence of the VH region of New corresponds most closely to VH sequences of proteins in the VH II subgroup. This primary structure makes it possible to construct a model from the high-resolution electron-density map of protein New.

Glia maturation factor from the pig brain can be detected in two molecular forms: the high molecular weight form which is 200 000 dalton in size and the low molecular weight form which is 40 000 dalton in size, as determined by Sephadex gel filtration. The former accounts for 85% of the total biological activity extracted at physiologic pH. The proportion of the low molecular weight form increases following freeze-thawing and ion-exchange chromatography. In addition to the morphological effects, both forms possess mitogenic activity but no esteropeptidase activity. Both forms show similar enzyme susceptibility, being inactivated by papain, ficin and pronase but resistant to subtilisin, thermolysin and trypsin. The high molecular weight form is more resistant to denaturation by low pH, heating and urea than the low molecular weight form. The high molecular weight factor has an isoelectric point of 4.27 whereas the low molecular weight factor has one of 5.04.

From mouse spinal cord homogenate, we isolated a trophic substance which reverses the post-denervation decrease in tetrodotoxin sensitivity of action potential in organ-cultured extensor digitorum longus muscle of mouse and characterized its physicochemical properties. The trophic substance was separated from macromolecules in homogenate by gel filtration on Biogel P2 column. The partially purified trophic substance was heat-stable, acid-stable and alkaline-labile. The trophic activity was destroyed by lyophilization at neutral pH but not at acidic pH. The trophic activity was abolished by incubation with pronase or leucine aminopeptidase, but not by trypsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin or carboxypeptidase A. The trophic substance passed through an ultrafiltration membrane UM10 freely. A small part of the trophic activity passed through a UM2 or UM05, and the rest was retained on the membranes. The trophic substance adsorbed on CM-Sephadex at pH 7.2 but passed through DEAE-Sephadex at pH 8.4. These results suggest that the trophic substance regulating tetrodotoxin sensitivity of action potential in mouse skeletal muscle is a peptide with a rather low molecular weight of less than 10,000 and that while the N-terminus of the peptide is free, the C-terminus is probably blocked. This peptide differs from other trophic substances reported previously by other investigators.

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.

1. Crude extracts of Limulus CNS cause hyperglycemia in Orconectes immunis and expand chromatophores in Uca pugilator. 2. The hyperglycemic action is due to a previously unknown polypeptide (LHGF) with an estimated molecular weight of 6400 daltons. LHGF is inactivated by hydrogen peroxide, pepsin, and protease, but unaffected by trypsin and brief boiling.3. The chromatophorotropic activity is due to the previously reported substance, LUC. LUC is shown to be a peptide with an approximate molecular weight of 1850 daltons; it is inactivated by hydrogen peroxide, protease, pepsin, trypsin, chymotrypsin, and thermolysin. 4. LUC and LHGF activity can be readily separated by gel filtration on a Sephadex G-25 column. 5. The similarity of LUC and LHGF to known crustacean hormones is dicussed.

1. The isolation of the ADP/ATP translocator from beef heart mitochondria as the bongkrekateprotein complex is described, using hydroxyapatite chromatography and gel filtration in Triton X-100 solution. 2. The inhibitor is bound to the protein prior to solubilization with detergent for protection against denaturation. Only the intact bongkrekate-protein passes easily through the hydroxyapatite column. Bongkrekate shileds the protein in contrast to carboxyatractylate only partially against proteinases present in the crude extract. 3. The isolated bongkrekate protein shows the same molecular weights in dodecylsulfate and Triton X-100, the same amino acid composition and the same isoelectric point as the earlier isolated carboxyatractylate-protein complex. It differs by its higher sensitivity against trypsin and thermolysin. 4. The identity of both proteins is demonstrated by interconversion of the bongkrekate-protein into the carboxyatractylate-protein. The process requires the catalysis by ADP or ATP, the natural substrates of the protein. 5. The formation of the extractable [3H]bongkrekate-protein complex in mitochondria requires the presence of ADP or ATP. 6. These data, the immunological studies presented earlier, and the differences in the reactivity of -SH groups of the isolated bongkrekate and carboxyatractylate complexes (to be published) indicate that both proteins represent different conformational states of the translocator protein (m-state and c-state).

Human fibrinogen contains 29 disulfide bridges per molecule. The amino acid sequences around all half-cystine residues are known. When fibrinogen is cleaved by cyanogen bromide five disulfide-containing fragments are formed. The second-largest of them is derived from the middle part of all three peptide chains, it is monomeric and contains 345 amino acid residues, 12 of which are half-cystines. The arrangement of the six disulfide bonds was determined by analysing sequences and amino acid compositions of subfragments isolated after cleavage with trypsin, thermolysin and staphylococcal protease and after clearage of the disulfide bonds. All half-cystine residues were found to be linked in unique pairs. Six half-cystine residues, two in each of the three peptide chains and forming the -Cys-X-X-X-Cys- sequences, were shown to connect the chains in a ring-like structure, similar to the one in the N-terminal part of the molecule. The remaining six half-cystine residues were found to connect two sections of the gamma-chain in a loop-like structure and four sections of the beta-chain in a loop-inside-a-loop-like structure, the inner beta-chain loop being homologous to the gamma-chain loop.
