title: Partial structural analysis of the basic chromosomal protein of rat spermatozoa.
abstract: An investigation of the primary structure of the basic chromosomal protein of rat spermatozoa by automated Edman degradation and by carboxypeptidase digestion has provided a general structural outline of the entire molecule. The exact or approximate location of virtually all residues other than arginine or cysteine is reported. Of particular interest, because of the occurrence of phosphorylated derivatives of this protein, is the location of three of the four serine residues.
