Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-specific glutamate dehydrogenase of Neurospora. VI. Isolation and sequences of eighteen fragments from the cyanogen bromide digest.

The 1030-residue polypeptide chain of the NAD-specific glutamate dehydrogenase of Neurospora crassa was fragmented by treatment with cyanogen bromide. The isolation and sequences of 18 fragments ranging in size from 4 to 51 residues are described. Some of these peptides proved to be cleavage products resulting from hydrolysis at acid-sensitive aspartyl-prolyl bonds. Some overlaps could be deduced on the basis of known sequences of peptides obtained by tryptic hydrolysis.
