چکیده

The complete amino acid sequence of dihydrofolate reductase from an amethopterin-resistant strain of Lactobacillus casei has been determined by sequence analysis of peptides produced by cleavage with cyanogen bromide, trypsin, staphylococcal protease, and myxobatter protease. Comparison of this sequence with those of reductases from other bacterial sources shows that the enzymes are homologous. The Lactobacillus casei reductase sequence shows a 29% sequence identity with that of the Escherichia coli enzyme and a 34% identity with the sequence of the enzyme from Streptococcus faecium. The NHz-terminal 68 residues of the L. casei reductase show a 54% sequence identity with that of the enzyme from S. faecium.

The amino acid sequence of the trimethoprim-resistant dihydrofolate reductase specified in Escherichia coli by R-plasmid R67.

The amino acid sequence of a trimethoprim-resistant dihydrofolate reductase (EC 1.5.1.3) specified by the R-plasmid R67 is described. The sequence was deduced from automatic and manual sequence analysis of the intact protein, the fragments produced by cyanogen bromide cleavage, and peptides derived from the largest cyanogen bromide fragment by digestion with trypsin, Staphylococcus aureus V8 pr...

The 102 amino acid residues of CNBr 4, the largest of 5 cyanogen bromide peptides from the Lactobacillus casei thymidylate synthetase were completely sequenced by means of limited tryptic, tryptic, chymotryptic, and staphylococcal protease peptides. CNBr 4 contains both of the cysteines in an enzyme subunit, with the 5-fluorodeoxyuridylate-reactive cysteine at residue 198 and the other at resid...

The amino acid sequences of 13 of the 14 cyanogen bromide peptides of horse muscle 3-phosphoglycerate kinase have been determined. These peptides together constitute 75% of the structure of the enzyme. Except for the smallest peptides, automated sequence analysis of the parent peptide was employed together with the automated or mgnual(5dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-sulfonyl (dansyl)-Edman method) ...
