Amino acid sequences, predicted MPP cleavage sites, a Glu-C cleavage site, and N-terminal tryptic peptides. (A) Mouse mature frataxin (78-207) is formed by MPP-mediated cleavage of mouse full-length frataxin at G40-L41 followed by cleavage of the resulting intermediate frataxin (41-207) at N77-L78. Trypsin digestion of mature mouse frataxin results in formation of the N-terminal peptide L78GTLDNPSSLDETAYER94; whereas, digestion with the endopeptidase Glu-C results in formation of the N-terminal peptide L78GTLDNPSSLDETAYE93. (B) Human mature frataxin is formed by MPP-mediated cleavage of human full-length frataxin at G41-L42 followed by cleavage of the resulting intermediate frataxin (42-210) at K80-S81. Trypsin digestion of mature human frataxin results in formation of the N-terminal peptide S81GTLGHPGSLDE89.
