Dog and rat pancreatic phospholipases A2: complete amino acid sequences deduced from complementary DNAs.
We performed molecular cloning of the cDNAs that encode dog and rat pancreatic phospholipases A2 to predict the primary structures of these enzymes. The deduced amino acid sequences exhibited a highly conservative feature which is common to a group of pancreatic phospholipases A2 from various animal species. Furthermore, the structures of the signal sequences of dog and rat pancreatic phospholipases A2 were predicted, although the assignment of the positions cleaved post-translationally is only tentative at the present time.
