Abstract: | A nuclear protein apparently homologous to the two major proteins of 40S heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles from mammalian cells has been isolated from the lower eukaryote , purified, and found to contain a substantial amount of the unusual amino acid NG, NG-dimethylarginine. The apparent homology is based on similar molecular weights, basic isoelectric points and amino acid compositions including the dimethylarginine and a high content of glycine. The implications of the presence of this protein in and the possible significance of the NG, NG-dimethylarginine are discussed. |
