Abstract: | Large fragments of rabbit serum transferrin have been prepared by enzymatic digestion with subtilisin and by chemical cleavage with BNPS-skatole. Sequence determinations on fragments from the N-terminal lobe lead to the assignment of 273 residues and those from the C-terminal lobe 267 residues. Together with previous determinations, a total of 614 of the ca 679 residues in rabbit transferrin have been assigned. A number of corrections are made to the preliminary sequence assignments of O.U. Beg, H.A. McKenzie and D.C. Shaw (1988) Biochemistry International 17, 1135-1142. |
