Overview
abstract
Apolipoprotein glutamine I (apoLP-Gln-I or apoA-I) is one of the major protein constituents of human plasma high density lipoproteins. The protein has 245 amino acid residues, including 3 residues of methionine, and is lacking isoleucine, cystine, and cysteine. Cleavage of apoLP-Gln-I with cyanogen bromide yields four fragments, designated in their order of elution from Bio-Gel P-30 as CNBr I, II, III, and IV. In the present study, we report the complete amino acid sequence of the NH2-terminal fragment, CNBr II, a peptide that contains 90 amino acid residues.
