Complete sequence of the glycosylated amino terminal segment of porcine pro-opiomelanocortin.
The complete sequence of an anterior pituitary glycopeptide corresponding to the first 80 amino acid residues of the amino terminal of pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) after excision of the signal peptide is reported. This peptide isolated from pig pituitaries shows considerable sequence conservation with its predicted homologues from bovine, murine and human species.
