The amino acid compositions of tryptic peptides and cyanogen bromide fragments of the purified zeta chain of Hb Portland I (zeta 2 gamma 2) and Hb Portland II (zeta 2 beta 2) have been determined. The hemoglobins were obtained from blood from neonates with hydrops fetalis due to homozygous
The primary structure of the embryonic zeta-chains of humans is given. Blood was obtained from a case with hydrops foetalis syndrom due to homozygous alpha-thalassemia 1. The zeta-chains were isolated by high performance liquid chromatography on reversed phase (RP8). The peptides for sequence work
Crotoxin B, the basic Asp49-PLA(2) subunit from crotoxin, the main component of Crotalus durissus terrificus venom, displays myotoxic, edema-inducing, bactericidal (upon Escherichia coli), liposomal-disrupting and anticoagulant activities. Chemical modifications of His (with 4-bromophenacyl bromide,
BnSP-7, a Lys49 myotoxic phospholipase A(2) homologue from Bothrops neuwiedi pauloensis venom, was structurally and functionally characterized. Several biological activities were assayed and compared with those of the chemically modified toxin involving specific amino acid residues. The cDNA
