Mammalian multidrug-resistant cell lines, selected for resistance to a single cytotoxic agent, display cross-resistance to a broad spectrum of structurally and functionally unrelated compounds. These cell lines overproduce a membrane protein, the P-glycoprotein, which is encoded by a member(s) of a multigene family, termed mdr or pgp. The amino acid sequence of the P-glycoprotein predicts an energy-dependent transport protein with homology to a large superfamily of proteins which transport a wide variety of substances.

Abstract:
The primary structure of porcine spleen RNase (RNase Psp1) was investigated as a mean of assessing the structure-function relationship of base non-specific ribonucleases of animal origin. N-terminal analysis of RNase Psp1 yielded three N-terminal sequences. These peptides were separated by gel-filtration on Superdex 75HR, after reduction and S-carboxymethylation of RNase Psp1. Determination of the amino-acid sequence of these peptides indicated that the RNase Psp1 preparation consisted of three peptides having 20 (RCM RNase Psp1 pep1), 15 (RCM RNase Psp1 pep2), and 164 (RCM RNase Psp1 pro) ami

The amino acid sequence of the variable region of a carbohydrate-containing amyloid-fibril protein MOL of immunoglobulin-light-chain type (AL) was elucidated. The sequence determination involved cleaving the protein with CNBr, BNPS-skatole, thermolysin and trypsin. The sequenced protein consisted of about 130 amino acid residues; however, gel-filtration and N-terminal analysis studies revealed AL proteins ranging in Mr from about 10,000 to 25,000.
