Abstract
Two [Met]enkephalin-containing polypeptides were purified from extracts of bovine adrenal chromaffin granules. One is 8000 daltons in size and contains the enkephalin sequence at the carboxy terminus. The other (14,000 daltons) has 2 internal enkephalin sequences and a 3rd sequence at the carboxy terminus. All of these sequences can be released by trypsin, indicating a possible enkephalin precursor role for the polypeptides.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
