Notes:
The amino-acid-sequence distribution in poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate, L-methionine) prepared by polymerization of the respective N-carboxyanhydrides has been investigated. This copolymer was converted first to poly(L-glutamic acid, L-methionine), which was subsequently cleaved by treatment with cyanogen bromide. The resulting material was fractionated into oligomers of (glutamic acid)n-homoserine whose relative molar amounts were determined quantitatively. The results have been compared with those for a random incorporation of the methionine in a γ-benzylglutamate host polymer. Fairly close agreement has been found.
