Abstract excerpt
The complete amino acid sequence of squid Todarodes pacificus troponin C (TnC), which was shown to bind only 1 mol Ca(2+)/mol, was determined by both the Edman and cDNA methods. The squid TnC is composed of 147 amino acids including an unblocked Pro at the N-terminus and the calculated molecular weight is 17003.9. Among the four potential Ca(2+)-binding sites, namely sites I-IV from the N-terminus, only site IV...
