Abstract excerpt
Reinvestigation of the structure of the beta-chain of Hb Atlanta-Coventry (beta 75 Leu----Pro, beta 141 Leu deleted) confirmed the presence of two abnormalities; however, analysis of the aberrant beta Co14 tryptic peptide by liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry indicated that the beta 141 Leu (mass 113 daltons) was not deleted but replaced by a novel amino acid of mass 129 daltons. The new amino acid in peptide...
