Abstract
The amino-terminal sequence of carboxypeptidase fromStreptomyces griseus was determined using a new protocol for automatic Edman degradation that reduced background noise. The sequence of the first 48 residues is: Asp-Phe-Pro-Pro-Ala-Asp-Ser-Arg-Tyr-His-Asn-Tyr-Ala-Glu-Met-Asn-Ala-Ala-Ile-Asp-Ala-Arg-Ile-Ala-Ala-Asn-Pro-Ser-Ile-Met-Ser-Lys-Arg-Val-Ile-Gly-Lys-Thr-Tyr-Gln-Gly-(Arg)-Asp-Val-Ile-Ala-Val-Lys, which is homologous to that of other zinc-containing carboxypeptidase from vertebrate and invertebrate sources.
