The complete amino-acid sequence of the dimeric and cooperative myoglobin from the radular muscles of Nassa mutabilis, a common edible gastropod mollusc on the Italian coast, has been determined. The molecule is a homodimer. The monomer is composed of 147 amino-acid residues, with a molecular mass of 15,760 Da. Its sequence is homologous with those of the dimeric myoglobins of the gastropod molluscs of the Prosobranchia subclass Busycon canaliculatum (63% conserved residues) and Cerithidea rhizophorarum (46% conserved residues). The rate of autoxidation to met-myoglobin of N. mutabilis oxymyoglobin at 25 degrees C is strongly pH-dependent with relative minimal rate values in the pH range 7 to 8.
