Propeptin, a New Inhibitor of Prolyl Endopeptidase Produced by Microbispora: II. Determination of Chemical Structure
The structure of propeptin, a new inhibitor of prolyl endopeptidase isolated from Microbispora sp. SNA-115, was determined. FAB/MS, Edman degradation and amino acid analysis revealed propeptin to be a cyclic polypeptide consisting of 19 common L-amino acids. By FAB/MS and protein chemical methods, t...

Zusammenfassung: | The structure of propeptin, a new inhibitor of prolyl endopeptidase isolated from Microbispora sp. SNA-115, was determined. FAB/MS, Edman degradation and amino acid analysis revealed propeptin to be a cyclic polypeptide consisting of 19 common L-amino acids. By FAB/MS and protein chemical methods, the primary sequence of propeptin was determined to be Gly1-Tyr-Pro-Trp-Trp-Asp-Tyr-Arg-Asp9-Leu-Phe-Gly-Gly-His-Thr-Phe-Ile-Ser-Pro19, which cyclizes between the β-carboxyl group of Asp9 and the α-amino group of Gly1. |
