Abstract: | Rhodotorucine is a peptidyl factor which induces mating tube formation in . The amino acid sequence of the factor was determined by Edman degradation and enzymatic hydrolysis. Rhodotorucine was shown to contain a lipophilic amino acid, S-farnesyl cysteine, at C-terminus by proton magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry and chemical synthesis. We proposed the following structure for rhodotorucine . H-Tyr-Pro-Glu-Ile-Ser-Trp-Thr-Arg-Asn-Gly-Cys(S-farnesyl)-OH |
