title: Isolation of a fourth cysteinyl-containing peptide of the alpha-subunit of the F1 ATPase from Escherichia coli necessitates revision of the DNA sequence.
abstract: The rapid determination of cysteinyl residues by Creighton's method [(1980) Nature 284, 487-489] led to the discovery of a discrepancy between protein and DNA sequence data in the alpha-subunit of the F1 ATPase from Escherichia coli [(1984) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 229, 320-328]. We have isolated a cysteinyl-containing decapeptide from the alpha-subunit with a protein sequence (AGCAMGEYFR) which is only partially recognizable from DNA data. Re-sequencing of DNA in the region coding for the peptide has resulted in two corrections: insertion of a cytosine before position 715 and deletion of a thymine at position 731 of the uncA gene.
