Amino acid sequence at the phosphorylated site of rat liver pyruvate kinase

One dominating peptic phosphopeptide, Asx-Thr-Lys-Gly-Pro-Glx-Ile-Glx-Thr-Gly-Val-Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-(³²P)SerP-Val-Ala-Glx-Leu, was obtained from rat liver pyruvate kinase (type L) phosphorylated by cyclic 3′,5′-AMP-stimulated protein kinase from the same tissue. The sequence around the phosphorylated serine residue is similar to that of a corresponding but smaller peptic phosphopeptide previously isolated from pig liver (type L) pyruvate kinase, Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-(³²P)SerP-Leu.
