The myoglobin of the fruit-bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus). 1977

O Castillo, and H Lehmann

The myoglobin of the fruit-bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus) has been investigated. It has 153 amino acid residues. When the possible therian ancestral myoglobin is taken into consideration, the myoglobin of the fruit-bat resembles most closely that of the hedgehog.

D006364 Hedgehogs The family Erinaceidae, in the order EULIPOTYPHLA. Most are true hedgehogs possessing a coat of spines and a very short tail. Those members of the family found in Southeast Asia (moonrats or gymnures) have normal body hair and a long tail. Erinaceidae,Hedgehog
D000595 Amino Acid Sequence The order of amino acids as they occur in a polypeptide chain. This is referred to as the primary structure of proteins. It is of fundamental importance in determining PROTEIN CONFORMATION.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013045 Species Specificity The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.
