title: The myoglobin of an echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus aculeatus).
abstract: The skeletal myoglobin of the echidna was composed of 153 residues. Its primary amino acid sequence has been determined and compared with that of platypus. Nine differences were found. The number of differences from known marsupial and eutherian myoglobin is about twice as much.
