The corticotropins from two species of whales, e. g. seiwhale (Balaenoptera borealis) and finwhale (Balaenoptera physalus) were subjected to hydrolysis by trypsin, chymotrypsin and pepsin. The peptide fragments were separated by gel-filtration through Sephadex and partition paper chromatography. The study of the amino acid sequence of the peptides obtained allowed to establish the primary structure of corticotropin from both species, which was found structurally identical to human corticotropin.
对两种鲸鱼（例如，塞鲸（北须鲸）和长须鲸）的促肾上腺皮质激素进行了胰蛋白酶、胰凝乳蛋白酶和胃蛋白酶水解。通过葡聚糖凝胶过滤和分配纸色谱法分离肽片段。对所得肽的氨基酸序列研究使得能够确定这两种鲸鱼促肾上腺皮质激素的一级结构，发现其在结构上与人促肾上腺皮质激素相同。
