Characterization of two novel forms of cholecystokinin isolated from bovine upper intestine.
The primary structures of two novel forms of cholecystokinin, isolated from bovine upper intestine are reported. The two peptides are composed of 33 and 39 amino acid residues, respectively, the larger being an N-terminally extended form of the shorter peptide. The primary structure of the 39 amino acid peptide is: (Formula: see text) This amino acid sequence differs from the porcine hormone at positions 13 and 15, which are Val and Met, respectively, in pig, the same amino acid substitutions have previously been found to occur also in dog.
