title: A mass spectrometric study of the structure of sterol carrier protein SCP2 from rat liver.
abstract: The amino acid sequence of Sterol Carrier Protein2 (SCP2) isolated from rat has been investigated. Using a novel mass spectrometric mapping approach, the C-terminus was found to be extended beyond the previously published sequence. Carbohydrate analysis of SCP2 samples suggest the presence of tightly bound mannose oligosaccharide of 5-10 residues, although probably not in a glycoprotein linkage.
