Abstract

Abstract The following sequence and the pairing of the half-cystine residues has been derived for bovine pancreatic deoxyribonuclease A. [see PDF for sequence] The sequence permits the following assignments of residues known to have special properties. The carbohydrate moiety is attached to Asn18. The crucial histidine residue subject to alkylation by iodoacetate is His131. The site of nitration when the enzyme is inactivated by tetranitromethane is Tyr62; the secondary site of nitration is Tyr73. The essential disulfide bond links residues 170 and 206.
