The nucleotide sequence of a 1,091-base pair cloned cDNA insert encoding bovine corticotropin-beta-lipotropin precursor mRNA is reported. The corresponding amino acid sequence indicates that the precursor protein consists of repetitive units and includes a third melanotropin sequence in its cryptic portion. Pairs of lysine and arginine residues separate the component peptides of the precursor.
报道了编码牛促肾上腺皮质激素-β-促脂解素前体mRNA的1091个碱基对克隆cDNA插入片段的核苷酸序列。相应的氨基酸序列表明,前体蛋白由重复单元组成,并且在其隐蔽部分包含第三个促黑素序列。赖氨酸和精氨酸残基对将前体的组成肽分开。
