Two immunochemically related forms of cystatin C-like inhibitors which differ in their Mr app and isoelectric point have been found both in urine and seminal vesicles of rats. Amino-terminal sequences of these two cystatins are identical within the same fluid and exhibit a high degree of homology with that of human cystatin C. However, cystatins C purified from urine lack eight residues at their amino-terminal end when compared to those of seminal vesicles. The occurrence of two cystatin C-like components in rat fluids has been found to be due to the presence of a glycosylated form reported here as cystatin Cg which specifically binds concanavalin A and is susceptible to endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase treatment.
