The ability of bovine brain extracts to compete in a selective fashion for opiate receptor binding is attributable to a small peptide. The substance has been purified to homogeneity and identified as comprising two penta-peptides HTyrGlyGlyPheLeuOH (Leucine-enkephalin) and HTyrGlyGlyPheMetOH (methionine enkephalin). Bovine brain contains 4 times as much leucine-enkephalin as methionine-enkephalin in contrast to pig brain in which these ratios are reversed. Competition for opiate receptor binding by leucine-enkephalin is reduced more by sodium and enhanced more by manganese than is the case for methionine-enkephalin, suggesting that leucine-enkephalin may be a “purer” agonist than methionine-enkephalin. 相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of the β-subunit of protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase was determined. The β-subunit contained four methionine residues. Thus, five peptides were obtained after cleavage of the carboxymethylated β-subunit with cyanogen bromide, and were isolated on Sephadex G-75 column chromatography. The amino acid sequences of the cyanogen bromide peptides were established by characterization of the peptides obtained after digestion with trypsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin, or Staphylococcus aureus protease. The major sequencing techniques used were automated and manual Edman degradations. The five cyanogen bromide peptides were aligned by means of the amino acid sequences of the peptides containing methionine purified from the tryptic hydrolysate of the carboxymethylated β-subunit. The amino acid sequence of all the 238 residues was as follows: ProAlaGlnAspAsnSerArgPheValIleArgAsp ArgAsnTrpHis ProLysAlaLeuThrPro-Asp — TyrLysThrSerIleAlaArg SerProArgGlnAla LeuValSerIleProGlnSer — IleSerGluThrThrGly ProAsnPheSerHisLeu GlyPheGlyAlaHisAsp-His — AspLeuLeuLeuAsnPheAsn AsnGlyGlyLeu ProIleGlyGluArgIle-Ile — ValAlaGlyArgValValAsp GlnTyrGlyLysPro ValProAsnThrLeuValGluMet — TrpGlnAlaAsnAla GlyGlyArgTyrArg HisLysAsnAspArgTyrLeuAlaPro — LeuAspProAsn PheGlyGlyValGly ArgCysLeuThrAspSerAspGlyTyrTyr — SerPheArg ThrIleLysProGlyPro TyrProTrpArgAsnGlyProAsnAsp — TrpArgProAla HisIleHisPheGlyIle SerGlyProSerIleAlaThr-Lys — LeuIleThrGlnLeuTyr PheGluGlyAspPro LeuIleProMetCysProIleVal — LysSerIleAlaAsn ProGluAlaValGlnGln LeuIleAlaLysLeuAspMetAsnAsn — AlaAsnProMet AsnCysLeuAlaTyr ArgPheAspIleValLeuArgGlyGlnArgLysThrHis PheGluAsnCys. The sequence published earlier in summary form (Iwaki et al., 1979, J. Biochem.86, 1159–1162) contained a few errors which are pointed out in this paper. 相似文献

The amino acid sequence of human chorionic gonadotropin. The alpha subunit and beta subunit. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The amino acid sequences of both the alpha and beta subunits of human chorionic gonadotropin have been determined. The amino acid sequence of the alpha subunit is: Ala - Asp - Val - Gln - Asp - Cys - Pro - Glu - Cys-10 - Thr - Leu - Gln - Asp - Pro - Phe - Ser - Gln-20 - Pro - Gly - Ala - Pro - Ile - Leu - Gln - Cys - Met - Gly-30 - Cys - Cys - Phe - Ser - Arg - Ala - Tyr - Pro - Thr - Pro-40 - Leu - Arg - Ser - Lys - Lys - Thr - Met - Leu - Val - Gln-50 - Lys - Asn - Val - Thr - Ser - Glu - Ser - Thr - Cys - Cys-60 - Val - Ala - Lys - Ser - Thr - Asn - Arg - Val - Thr - Val-70 - Met - Gly - Gly - Phe - Lys - Val - Glu - Asn - His - Thr-80 - Ala - Cys - His - Cys - Ser - Thr - Cys - Tyr - Tyr - His-90 - Lys - Ser. Oligosaccharide side chains are attached at residues 52 and 78. In the preparations studied approximately 10 and 30% of the chains lack the initial 2 and 3 NH2-terminal residues, respectively. This sequence is almost identical with that of human luteinizing hormone (Sairam, M. R., Papkoff, H., and Li, C. H. (1972) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 48, 530-537). The amino acid sequence of the beta subunit is: Ser - Lys - Glu - Pro - Leu - Arg - Pro - Arg - Cys - Arg-10 - Pro - Ile - Asn - Ala - Thr - Leu - Ala - Val - Glu - Lys-20 - Glu - Gly - Cys - Pro - Val - Cys - Ile - Thr - Val - Asn-30 - Thr - Thr - Ile - Cys - Ala - Gly - Tyr - Cys - Pro - Thr-40 - Met - Thr - Arg - Val - Leu - Gln - Gly - Val - Leu - Pro-50 - Ala - Leu - Pro - Gin - Val - Val - Cys - Asn - Tyr - Arg-60 - Asp - Val - Arg - Phe - Glu - Ser - Ile - Arg - Leu - Pro-70 - Gly - Cys - Pro - Arg - Gly - Val - Asn - Pro - Val - Val-80 - Ser - Tyr - Ala - Val - Ala - Leu - Ser - Cys - Gln - Cys-90 - Ala - Leu - Cys - Arg - Arg - Ser - Thr - Thr - Asp - Cys-100 - Gly - Gly - Pro - Lys - Asp - His - Pro - Leu - Thr - Cys-110 - Asp - Asp - Pro - Arg - Phe - Gln - Asp - Ser - Ser - Ser - Ser - Lys - Ala - Pro - Pro - Pro - Ser - Leu - Pro - Ser-130 - Pro - Ser - Arg - Leu - Pro - Gly - Pro - Ser - Asp - Thr-140 - Pro - Ile - Leu - Pro - Gln. Oligosaccharide side chains are found at residues 13, 30, 121, 127, 132, and 138. The proteolytic enzyme, thrombin, which appears to cleave a limited number of arginyl bonds, proved helpful in the determination of the beta sequence. 相似文献

Pro-enkephalin gene derived peptides in the porcine stomach: cellular distribution and molecular forms 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Antisera to the enkephalin variants Met-enk Arg6Phe7 and Met-enk Arg6Gly7Leu8 have been used in immunohistochemistry and radioimmunoassay studies of hog stomach. In the mucosa of the antrum, but not fundus, there was identified a population of immunoreactive endocrine-like cells. When extracts of antral mucosa were fractionated by gel filtration on Sephadex G50 the predominant immunoreactive forms of Met-enk Arg6Phe7 and Met-enk Arg6Gly7Leu8 were found to elute before the standards, and were compatible with N-terminally extended variants. In the muscle layers of both antrum and fundus, immunoreactive nerve fibers were found, these were especially numerous in the myenteric plexus. In extracts of the antral muscle, 50-60% of both Met-enk Arg6Phe7 and Met-enk Arg6Gly7Leu8 immunoreactivity eluted in the position of the standards and the remainder had the properties of N-terminally extended variants. In the fundus muscle the variants accounted for 70-80% of total activity. The results indicate that the proenkephalin gene is expressed in neurones and endocrine cells of the hog stomach. The different patterns of molecular forms found in different regions of the stomach suggest that the precursor is processed by different pathways in different populations of endocrine cells and neurones. 相似文献

Digestion of the native pig kidney fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase tetramer with subtilisin cleaves each of the 35,000-molecular-weight subunits to yield two major fragments: the S-subunit (Mr ca. 29,000), and the S-peptide (Mr 6,500). The following amino acid sequence has been determined for the S peptide: AcThrAspGlnAlaAlaPheAspThrAsnIle Val ThrLeuThrArgPheValMetGluGlnGlyArgLysAla ArgGlyThrGlyGlu MetThrGlnLeuLeuAsnSerLeuCysThrAlaValLys AlaIleSerThrAla z.sbnd;ValArgLysAlaGlyIleAlaHisLeuTyrGlyIleAla. Comparison of this sequence with that of the NH2-terminal 60 residues of the enzyme from rabbit liver (El-Dorry et al., 1977, Arch. Biochem. Biophys.182, 763) reveals strong homology with 52 identical positions and absolute identity in sequence from residues 26 to 60.Although subtilisin cleavage of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase results in diminished sensitivity of the enzyme to AMP inhibition, we have found no AMP inhibition-related amino acid residues in the sequenced S-peptide. The loss of AMP sensitivity that occurs upon pyridoxal-P modification of the enzyme does not result in the modification of lysyl residues in the S-peptide. Neither photoaffinity labeling of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase with 8-azido-AMP nor modification of the cysteinyl residue proximal to the AMP allosteric site resulted in the modification of residues located in the NH2-terminal 60-amino acid peptide. 相似文献

Hepatocellular carcinoma is a common malignancy. The carcinoma cells express glypican‐3 (GPC‐3) on the cell membrane. GPC‐3 is also expressed in melanoma cells. Therefore, GPC‐3 might be a potential target for tumor imaging or therapy. Here, proteomic mass spectrometry was used to identify peptides that target GPC‐3‐expressing tumors. A mammalian expression vector expressing a FLAG‐GPC‐3 fusion protein was cloned for immunoprecipitation. With the use of liposomes, the vector was transfected into HepG2 (HepG2/FLAG‐GPC‐3) and HEK 293 cells, and the transfected cell lines were selected with geneticin. HepG2/FLAG‐GPC‐3 cells were used for immunoprecipitation of FLAG‐GPC‐3 fusion protein. Seven peptide candidates (L1–L7) were selected for GPC‐3‐targeting ligands by mass spectrometric analysis. The L5 peptide with 14 amino acids (Arg‐Leu‐Asn‐Val‐Gly‐Gly‐Thr‐Tyr‐Phe‐Leu‐Thr‐Thr‐Arg‐Gln) showed selective binding to the GPC‐3‐expressing tumor cells, as did a shortened L5 peptide (L5‐2) with seven amino acids (Tyr‐Phe‐Leu‐Thr‐Thr‐Arg‐Gln). These peptide ligands have potential as targeting moieties to GPC‐3‐expressing tumors for diagnostic and/or therapeutic purposes.

Tryptic peptides which account for all five cysteinyl residues in ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase from Rhodospirillum rubrum have been purified and sequenced. Collectively, these peptides contain 94 of the approximately 500 amino acid residues per molecule of subunit. Due to one incomplete cleavage at a site for trypsin and two incomplete chymotryptic-like cleavages, eight major radioactive peptides (rather than five as predicted) were recovered from tryptic digests of the enzyme that had been carboxymethylated with [3H]iodoacetate. The established sequences are: GlyTyrThrAlaPheValHisCys1Lys TyrValAspLeuAlaLeuLysGluGluAspLeuIleAla GlyGlyGluHisValLeuCys1AlaTyr AlaGlyTyrGlyTyrValAlaThrAlaAlaHisPheAla AlaGluSerSerThrGlyThrAspValGluValCys1 ThrThrAsxAsxPheThrArg AlaCys1ThrProIleIleSerGlyGlyMetAsnAla LeuArg ProPheAlaGluAlaCys1HisAlaPheTrpLeuGly GlyAsnPheIleLys In these peptides, radioactive carboxymethylcysteinyl residues are denoted with asterisks and the sites of incomplete cleavage with vertical wavy lines. None of the peptides appear homologous with either of two cysteinyl-containing, active-site peptides previously isolated from spinach ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase. 相似文献

Substance P 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Substance P is a potent hypotensive peptide first noted in extracts of equine brain and intestinal tissue in 1931 that also stimulates the contraction of various intestinal tissues. Its isolation proved to be particularly difficult and was not accomplished until 1970 following the chance finding of a sialogogic factor in bovine hypothalamic extracts. Utilizing this biological property to monitor purification procedures, the active sialogogic peptide was obtained in pure form and identified as Substance P by multiple chemical and biological criteria. The amino acid sequence of Substance P is HArgProLysProGlnGlnPhePheGlyLeuMetNH2. Synthetic Substance P has been prepared and a radioimmunoassay has been developed, thus facilitating well-defined research into its physiological roles. Much of the current research is centering on its possible role in sensory neurotransmission. 相似文献

Pyruvate carboxylase: isolation of the biotin-containing tryptic peptide and the determination of its primary sequency 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The biotin-containing tryptic peptides of pyruvate carboxylase from sheep, chicken, and turkey liver mitochondria have been isolated and their primary structures determined. The amino acid sequences of the 19 residue peptides from chicken and turkey are identical and share a common sequence of 14 residues around biocytin with the 24-residue peptide isolated from sheep. The sequences obtained were: residue 1 → 11 Avian: Gly Ala Pro Leu Val Leu Ser Ala Met Biocytin Met Sheep: Gly Gln Pro Leu Val Leu Ser Ala Met Biocytin Met residues 12 → 19 or 24 Avian: Glu Thr Val Val Thr Ala Pro Arg Sheep: Glu Thr Val Val Thr Ser Pro Val Thr Glu Gly Val Arg A sensitive radiochemical assay for biotin was developed based on the tight binding of biotin by avidin. The ability of zinc sulfate to precipitate, without dissociating, the avidin-biotin complex provided a convenient procedure for separating free and bound biotin, and hence, for back-titrating a standard amount of avidin with [14C]biotin. 相似文献

We examined the effects of orally administrated amino acids on myfibrillar proteolysis in food-deprived chicks. Plasma N(tau)-methylhistidine concentration, as an index of myofibrillar proteolysis, was decreased by the administration of Glu, Gly, Ala, Leu, Ile, Ser, Thr, Met, Trp, Asn, Gln, Pro, Lys and Arg but not by Asp, Val, Phe, Tyr or His to chicks. Orally administrated Cys was fatal to chicks. These results indicate that oral Glu, Gly, Ala, Leu, Ile, Ser, Thr, Met, Trp, Asn, Gln, Pro, Lys and Arg administration suppressed myofibrillar proteolysis in chicks. 相似文献

Transfer of an aqueous-soluble peptide hormone or neurotransmitter such as [Met]- or [Leu]enkephalin (Tyr1-Gly2-Gly3-Phe4-Met5(Leu5)), to the lipid-rich environment of its membrane-embedded receptor protein may convert the peptide into a ("bioactive") conformation required for eliciting biological activity. We have examined by high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy the conformational parameters of free enkephalin in aqueous solution versus those of enkephalin bound to lysophosphatidylcholine micelles using two approaches: 1) exchange rates, line broadening, coupling constants, and chemical shift changes of enkephalin backbone peptide N-H protons were measured for free and membrane-bound peptide in H2O (360 MHz, pH 5.6, 20 degrees C). A selective upfield shift observed for the Met5(Leu5) N-H proton upon lipid binding was interpreted in terms of its incorporation into an intramolecular H-bond. 2) 13C chemical shift changes induced by the shift reagent praseodymium nitrate (Pr(NO3)3) were compared in the presence and absence of lipid micelles. Significant changes occurring in Gly2 carbon atoms in membrane-bound enkephalin suggested the relative proximity of this residue to the Pr3+ atom (bound to the Met5(Leu5) COOH-terminal carboxylate 4 residues away). These combined results, in conjunction with studies on the specific interactions of enkephalin substituents with the micelles (Deber, C. M., and Behnam, B. A., (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 81, 61-65) suggest that enkephalin folds into an intramolecularly H-bonded beta-turn structure (with an H-bond between Gly2 C = O and Met5 NH) in the lipid environment. Such folding could facilitate the positioning of strategic residues in vivo as the hormone diffuses toward its receptor. 相似文献

In this study, concentrations of free amino acids (FAA) and amino group containing compounds (AGCC) following graded diffuse traumatic brain injury (mild TBI, mTBI; severe TBI, sTBI) were evaluated. After 6, 12, 24, 48 and 120 hr aspartate (Asp), glutamate (Glu), asparagine (Asn), serine (Ser), glutamine (Gln), histidine (His), glycine (Gly), threonine (Thr), citrulline (Cit), arginine (Arg), alanine (Ala), taurine (Tau), γ‐aminobutyrate (GABA), tyrosine (Tyr), S‐adenosylhomocysteine (SAH), l ‐cystathionine (l ‐Cystat), valine (Val), methionine (Met), tryptophane (Trp), phenylalanine (Phe), isoleucine (Ile), leucine (Leu), ornithine (Orn), lysine (Lys), plus N‐acetylaspartate (NAA) were determined in whole brain extracts (n = 6 rats at each time for both TBI levels). Sham‐operated animals (n = 6) were used as controls. Results demonstrated that mTBI caused modest, transient changes in NAA, Asp, GABA, Gly, Arg. Following sTBI, animals showed profound, long‐lasting modifications of Glu, Gln, NAA, Asp, GABA, Ser, Gly, Ala, Arg, Citr, Tau, Met, SAH, l ‐Cystat, Tyr and Phe. Increase in Glu and Gln, depletion of NAA and Asp increase, suggested a link between NAA hydrolysis and excitotoxicity after sTBI. Additionally, sTBI rats showed net imbalances of the Glu‐Gln/GABA cycle between neurons and astrocytes, and of the methyl‐cycle (demonstrated by decrease in Met, and increase in SAH and l ‐Cystat), throughout the post‐injury period. Besides evidencing new potential targets for novel pharmacological treatments, these results suggest that the force acting on the brain tissue at the time of the impact is the main determinant of the reactions ignited and involving amino acid metabolism. 相似文献

Adolescence is an important period for HPA axis development and synapse maturation and reorganization in the prefrontal cortex (PFC). Thus, stress during adolescence could alter stress‐sensitive brain regions such as the PFC and may alter the impact of future stressors on these brain regions. Given that women are more susceptible to many stress‐linked psychological disorders in which dysfunction of PFC is implicated, and that this increased vulnerability emerges in adolescence, stress during this time could have sex‐dependent effects. Therefore, we investigated the effects of adolescent social instability stress (SIS) on dendritic morphology of Golgi‐stained pyramidal cells in the medial PFC of adult male and female rats. We then examined dendritic reorganization following chronic restraint stress (CRS) with and without a rest period in adult rats that had been stressed in adolescence. Adolescent SIS conferred long‐term alterations in prelimbic of males and females, whereby females show reduced apical length and basilar thin spine density and males show reduced basilar length. CRS in adulthood failed to produce immediate dendritic remodeling in SIS rats. However, CRS followed by a rest period reduced apical dendritic length and increases mushroom spine density in adolescently stressed adult males. Conversely, CRS followed by rest produced apical outgrowth and decreased mushroom spine density in adolescently stressed adult females. These results suggest that stress during adolescence alters development of the PFC and modulates stress‐induced dendritic changes in adulthood. 相似文献

Enkephalins are degraded rapidly by homogenates of rat brain and by ultrafiltrates of mouse brain supernatant with release of N-terminal tyrosine followed later by Met (or Leu), Phe and Gly as measured by amino acid analysis and by microdansylation techniques. Fragments of β-lipotropin (sequences 61–76, α-endorphin and 61–91, β-endorphin) were degraded more slowly with evidence for multiple sites of cleavage by aminopeptidases (N-terminal release of tyrosine), carboxypeptidases, and various endopeptidases active at neutral pH including some with tryptic-like specificity. The slow appearance of Gly and the accumulation of Gly-Gly in digests of enkephalin and fragment 61–76 points to the presence in brain extracts of a glycyl-glycine dipeptidase which is rate-limiting. Rates of degradation observed appear to accord with their duration of action in vivo based on their behavioral and analgesic properties. 相似文献

In order to investigate the structure-activity relationship of [Leu5]- and [Met5]enkephalins, [(4'-bromo)Phe4, Leu5]-, [(4'-bromo)Phe4, Met5]- and [Met5] enkephalins were synthesized and crystallized. The crystal structure of [(4'-bromo) Phe4, Leu5]- enkephalin was determined by X-ray diffraction method using the heavy atom method and refined to R = 0.092 by the least-squares method. The molecule in this crystal took essentially the same type I' beta-turn conformation found in [Leu5]enkephalin [Smith & Griffin (1978) Science 199, 1214-1216). On the other hand, the preliminary three-dimensional Patterson analyses showed that the most probable conformations of [(4'-bromo)Phe4,Met5]- and [Met5]enkephalins are both the dimeric extended forms. Based on these insights, the biologically active conformation of enkephalin was discussed in relation to the mu- and delta-receptors. 相似文献

The sequence of 96 amino acid residues from the COOH-terminus of the active subunit of cholera toxin, A1, has been determined as PheAsnValAsnAspVal LeuGlyAlaTyrAlaProHisProAsxGluGlu GluValSerAlaLeuGlyGly IleProTyrSerGluIleTyrGlyTrpTyrArg ValHisPheGlyValLeuAsp GluGluLeuHisArgGlyTyrArgAspArgTyr TyrSerAsnLeuAspIleAla ProAlaAlaAspGlyTyrGlyLeuAlaGlyPhe ProProGluHisArgAlaTrp ArgGluGluProTrpIleHisHisAlaPro ProGlyCysGlyAsnAlaProArg(OH). This is the largest fragment obtained by BrCN cleavage of the subunit A1 (Mr 23,000), and has previously been indicated to contain the active site for the adenylate cyclase-stimulating activity. Unequivocal identification of the COOH-terminal structure was achieved by separation and analysis of the terminal peptide after the specific chemical cleavage at the only cysteine residue in A1 polypeptide. The site of self ADP-ribosylation in the A1 subunit [C. Y. Lai, Q.-C. Xia, and P. T. Salotra (1983) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun.116, 341–348] has now been identified as Arg-50 of this peptide, 46 residues removed from the COOH-terminus. The cysteine that forms disulfide bridge to A2 subunit in the holotoxin is at position 91. 相似文献

In a previous study, we prepared a monoclonal antibody (MoAb) to coagulation factor IX (FIX), designated 65-10, which interfered with the activation of FIX by the activated factor XI/Ca(2+) and neutralized the prolonged ox brain prothrombin time of hemophilia B(M) [11,12]. The location of the epitope on the FIX for 65-10 MoAb is (168) Ile-Thr-Gln-Ser-Thr-Gln-Ser-Phe-Asn-Asp-Phe-Thr-Arg-Val-Val(182) [21]. In this paper, we studied in more detail an epitope on FIX using the systematic substitution of different amino acids at each residue of the epitope peptides and the influence of the epitope peptide on the prolonged ox brain prothrombin time of the hemophilia B(M) plasma of 65-10 MoAb. In the replacement set of amino acids, peptides showing low or no reactivity to 65-10 were (175)Phe --> Asp, Glu, Gly, Lys, Arg, Thr, Val, (176)Asn --> Asp, Glu, Phe, Ile, Lys, Leu, Pro, Val, Tyr, (177)Asp --> Cys, Glu, Phe, Ile, Lys, Leu, Met, Pro, Gln, Arg, Ser, Thr, Val, Trp, Tyr, and (178) Phe --> Pro. These results imply that a hydrophobic molecule of (175) Phe, a hydrophilic molecule of (176)Asn, and a negative charge molecule of (177)Asp were important to the epitope. The 65-10 MoAb antibody neutralized the prolonged ox brain prothrombin time of hemophilia B(M) Nagoya 2 ((180)Arg -->Trp) and Kashihara ((181)Val --> Phe) as well as B(M) Kiryu ((313)Val --> Asp) and Niigata ((390)Ala --> Val). This reaction was inhibited by preincubation with a (168) Ile-Thr-Gln-Ser-Thr-Gln-Ser-Phe-Asn-Asp-Phe-Thr-Arg-Val-Val(182) peptide conjugated with bovine serum albumin (BSA). 65-10 MoAb that has been useful in detailing epitopes will be useful for qualitative analysis of hemophilia B(M). 相似文献

The amino acid sequence of a protease inhibitor isolated from the hemolymph of Sarcophaga bullata larvae was determined by tandem mass spectrometry. Homology considerations with respect to other protease inhibitors with known primary structures assisted in the choice of the procedure followed in the sequence determination and in the alignment of the various peptides obtained from specific chemical cleavage at cysteines and enzyme digests of the S. bullata protease inhibitor. The resulting sequence of 57 residues is as follows: Val Asp Lys Ser Ala Cys Leu Gln Pro Lys Glu Val Gly Pro Cys Arg Lys Ser Asp Phe Val Phe Phe Tyr Asn Ala Asp Thr Lys Ala Cys Glu Glu Phe Leu Tyr Gly Gly Cys Arg Gly Asn Asp Asn Arg Phe Asn Thr Lys Glu Glu Cys Glu Lys Leu Cys Leu. 相似文献
