title: Amino-terminal sequence of a phospholipid transfer protein from rat lung.
abstract: A phospholipid transfer protein from rat lung has been characterized in terms of the amino-terminal sequence. The sequence is Val-Leu-Leu-Lys-Glu-Tyr-Arg-Val-Ile-Leu-Pro-(Val)-His-Val-Asp-Glu-Tyr-Gln-Val- Gly. Comparison of the amino-terminal sequence of the protein from lung with sequences from phosphatidylcholine transfer protein and non-specific phospholipid transfer protein from bovine liver revealed no apparent sequence homology. The sequence showed no homology with fatty acid binding proteins or cellular retinoid binding proteins.
