The amino acid sequences of 48 peptides obtained from a chymotryptic digest of the mould acid protease, penicillopepsin (EC 3.4.23.7), have been determined. These peptides established the sequences of 26 unique fragments of up to 28 residues in length. The 28-residue fragment was identified as the N-terminal region. The C-terminal region is represented by a 13-residue fragment. The amino acids contained in these fragments account for some 85% of the residues of the enzyme.

A new porcine carboxypeptidase A, designated as Ae, has been isolated from twice crystallized elastase. The enzyme preparation appeared homogeneous in the ultracentrifuge and gel electrophoresis, and had an s20,w of 3.34 S. A molecular weight of 34 700 was obtained from sedimentation equilibrium and the zinc content was 0.93 mole/mole enzyme. The new enzyme differs from the known porcine carboxy-peptidases (Aj, A2, A3) in solubility properties and amino acid composition. The amino acid compositions of Ai, A2, and Ae, which mainly differ in the content of isoleucine, are suggestive of their being genetic variants due to several amino acid replacements in the molecule.
