For larger proteins, efficient deblocking prior to Edman sequencing is especially important to obtain quality, extended sequencing data which is limited by the stepwise accumulation of background from the random acid hydrolysis of the protein. Therefore, any portion that remains

The cDNA clone of Geotrichum candidum (Geo.) lipase was isolated from the Geo. cDNA library by colony hybridization using 32P-labeled oligonucleotides corresponding to a partial amino acid sequence of this enzyme. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA determined by the

Pyroglutamyl peptidases I (PPI) are cysteine peptidases of the clan CF, family C15, which hydrolyse N-terminal l-pyroglutamyl residues (l-pGlu). The l-pGlu modification is a post-transcriptional modification that confers relative aminopeptidase resistance and, in some cases, is essential to the modified

To enable Edman sequencing of pyroglutamylated immunoglobulins, enzymatic deblocking by pyroglutamate aminopeptidase is performed, often with variable yield and compromised solubility. Recently, enzymatic deblocking of immunoglobulins without denaturation was described. Although the conditions ensured efficient removal of pyroglutamyl residues, we

In order to determine pyroglutamic acid levels in plasma, we developed a method based on precolumn derivatization of the carboxyl group of pyroglutamic acid with 2-nitrophenylhydrazine. Eight-week-old male SD strain rats were administered 200 mg of an acidic peptide fraction
