Amino terminal sequence of the mitochondrial protein mtDBP-C: similarity with nonhistone chromosomal proteins HMG 1 and 2.
We have previously reported the characterization of a DNA-binding protein isolated from Xenopus laevis mitochondria (mtDBP-C). The amino terminal sequence of this protein (26 residues) has been determined by automated Edman degradation and used to search for sequence similarity with the NBRF library. A segment of 17 amino acids displays 47.1% of identity with proteins HMG-1 and 2 of various vertebrate species.
