THE AMINO ACID SEQUENCE OF HYPERTENSIN II

Abstract

The amino acid sequence of horse hypertensin II has been determined by the use of chymotrypsin, the fluorodinitrobenzene method, and stepwise phenylisothiocyanate degradation. The results indicate that the amino acids of hypertensin II are arranged in the following order: asp-arg-val-tyr-iso-hist-pro-phe.
