Complete amino acid sequence of mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase from pig heart muscle. Cyanogen bromide peptides.
Twelve cyanogen bromide peptides were isolated from S-carboxymethylated mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase and their amino acid sequences were determined. These peptides were purified first by gel filtration on a Sephadex G-75 column, and then by gel filtration on Bio-Gel, or by ion exchange chromatography on a phosphocellulose column in the presence of 8 M urea, or by both methods. Small peptides were purified by paper chromatography. The cyanogen bromide peptides accounted for 367 of the 401 amino acid residues in the subunit of the enzyme. No peptide accounting for the other 34 residues was obtained in a homogeneous state, but peptide mixtures containing this particular peptide were analyzed by various procedures including Edman degradation and digestion with Staphylococcus aureus protease. The results accounted for all 401 amino acid residues.
