Primary structure of protein L10 from the large subunit of Escherichia coli ribosomes. 1976

I Heiland, and D Brauer, and B Wittmann-Liebold

The complete primary structure of protein L10 from the large subunit of the Escherichia coli ribosome has been determined. L10 is composed of 165 residues and has the amino acid composition: Asp6, Asn3, Thr9, Ser6, Glu14, Gln4, Pro5, Gly9, Ala33, Val15, Met5, Ile5, Leu15, Tyr3, Phe6, His1, Lys12, Arg13 and Cys1. The molecular weight of L10 is 17 738. The amino acid sequence was determined by a combination of automated Edman degradation of the intact protein in a modified Beckman sequentor and sequencing peptides obtained from digestions with trypsin, themolysin, Staphylococcus aureus protease and chymotrypsin. Further information was obtained from cyanogen bromide fragments and peptides resulting from digestion with trypsin after protection of the epsilon-amino groups of the lysine residues with exo-cis-3,6-endoxo-delta4-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride (ETPA).

D010455	Peptides	Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS.	Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides

D002268	Carboxypeptidases	Enzymes that act at a free C-terminus of a polypeptide to liberate a single amino acid residue.	Carboxypeptidase
D002621	Chemistry	A basic science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter; and the reactions that occur between substances and the associated energy exchange.
D002918	Chymotrypsin	A serine endopeptidase secreted by the pancreas as its zymogen, CHYMOTRYPSINOGEN and carried in the pancreatic juice to the duodenum where it is activated by TRYPSIN. It selectively cleaves aromatic amino acids on the carboxyl side.	Alpha-Chymotrypsin Choay,Alphacutanée,Avazyme
D003488	Cyanogen Bromide	Cyanogen bromide (CNBr). A compound used in molecular biology to digest some proteins and as a coupling reagent for phosphoroamidate or pyrophosphate internucleotide bonds in DNA duplexes.	Bromide, Cyanogen
D004926	Escherichia coli	A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc.	Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
