Abstract
- The complete amino acid sequence of the major α subunit of the lectin from seeds of Dioclea grandiflora was determined. The sequence was deduced from analysis of peptides derived from the native α subunit by digestion with trypsin, chymotrypsin, the Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, and pepsin; and from larger peptides produced by digestion of the citraconylated protein with trypsin. The α subunit consists of a single polypeptide chain of 237 amino acids which differs from the sequence of concanavalin in 53 positions. Significant levels of heterogeneity were observed in five positions in the sequence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
