Question:

Determine the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide from the following results:

Acid hydrolysis gives Ala, Arg, His, 2 Lys, Leu, 2 Met, Pro, 2 Ser, Thr, Val.

Carboxypeptidase A releases Val.

Edman’s reagent releases PTH-Leu.

Cleavage with cyanogen bromide gives three peptides with the following amino acid compositions:

1. His, Lys, Met, Pro, Ser

2. Thr, Val

3. Ala, Arg, Leu, Lys, Met, Ser

Trypsin-catalyzed hydrolysis gives three peptides and a single amino acid:

1. Arg, Leu, Ser

2. Met, Pro, Ser, Thr, Val

3. Lys

4. Ala, His, Lys, Met
