FIG. 1. Amino acid sequence of calpastat and related peptides.

FIG. 1

Calpastat, 40 amino acids in length, consists of amino acids 7–22 of human k-FGF at the amino terminus, followed by the 24-amino acid calpastatin consensus sequence of Croall and McGrody (42). Calpastat-Ala is a control peptide, in which the most highly conserved amino acids of the calpastatin consensus sequence are replaced with alanine. The calpastatin 24-mer is the calpastatin consensus sequence (42).
