title: The complete amino acid sequence of bovine skeletal muscle acylphosphatase.
abstract: The primary structure of bovine skeletal muscle acylphosphatase was determined by performing the sequence analyses of the complete series of tryptic peptides. The amino acid composition of the entire series of peptic peptides was used to reconstruct the sequence by the overlapping method. The proposed structure is further confirmed by analogy with known amino acid sequences of acylphosphatase from skeletal muscle of other vertebrate species. The length of the polypeptide chain is 98 residues, identical to the length of the enzymes from other known mammalian species, but different from that found in turkey. The enzyme is NH2-acetylated and a comparison with the analogous molecular forms from other vertebrate species indicates that there are several long polypeptide stretches strictly conserved (93-97% identical position among mammals, and about 80% between calf and turkey enzymes).
