Question:

A sample of a peptide of unknown sequence was treated with trypsin; another sample of the same peptide was treated with chymotrypsin. The sequences (N-terminal to C- terminal) of the smaller peptides produced by trypsin digestion were as follows:Met-Val-Ser-Thr-Lys Val-Ile Trp-Thr-Leu-Met-Ile Leu-Phe-Asn-Glu-Ser-Arg

The sequences of the smaller peptides produced by chymotrypsin digestion were as follows:Asn-Glu-Ser-Arg-Val-Ile-Trp Thr-Leu-Met-Ile Met-Val-Ser-Thr-Lys-Leu-Phe

Deduce the sequence of the original peptide.
