Nucleotide sequence of preproLyCEP cDNA, the derived amino acid sequence, and comparison of LyCEP with related peptides. A, Nucleotide sequence and conceptual translation of the LyCEP precursor cDNA. The putative proteolytic processing site (Lys-Arg) is boxed, and the LyCEP domain is underlined. Nucleotide numberis indicated at the right of each line. The predicted amino acid sequence of preproLyCEP isnumbered (on the right) with the first methionine designated position 1. The stop codon is indicated by anasterisk. The nucleotide sequence of the preproLyCEP cDNA has been deposited into GenBank under accession numberAF047683. B, Alignment of LyCEP with ACEP-1 fromAchatina fulica (Fujimoto et al., 1990) and with LUQIN from Aplysia californica (Aloyz and DesGroseillers, 1995). Amino acids identical in LyCEP and either of the other peptides are boxed.
