The leucocyte L1 protein: identity with the cystic fibrosis antigen and the calcium-binding MRP-8 and MRP-14 macrophage components.
The partial amino acid sequence of L1 protein light and heavy chains reveals an overall structure identical to the two macrophage proteins, MRP-8 and MRP-14, deduced from the sequence of the cDNA encoding the polypeptides. The light chain of L1 protein (L1-L) was shown to contain two modified amino acid residues.
