The partial amino-acid sequence of an H-2K molecule.

PMCID: PMC336028  PMID: 1062803

Abstract

Eighteen of the NH2-terminal 27 amino acids of a murine H-2K molecule have been assigned. The approach used was to label murine splenocytes with a single radioactive amino acid, isolate the H-2K molecule by specific immunoprecipitation, electrophorese the dissolved precipitate on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels, and subject the isolated H-2K peak to amino-acid analysis and automated sequencing.
