The complete amino acid sequence of mohair protein, SCMKB-M1.2 (97 residues), was determined. The protein was isolated from reduced and carboxymethylated mohair by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose phosphate. Peptides for sequence determination were obtained by digestion with trypsin, pepsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin and papain, and were fractionated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, paper chromatography and electrophoresis. The sequence of the peptides were determined by the Edman degradation method (by use of both the Beckman Sequence and a non-automatic procedure), and by partial acid hydrolysis. The protein is closely homologous to wool protein SCMKB-IIIB2, and also contains acetylated alanine as N-terminal amino acid.
