Abstract excerpt

A 40 amino acid sequence of the unsolved structure of Escherichia coli alanine-tRNA synthetase is essential for tRNA binding and encodes an immunological determinant that cross-reacts with antibodies raised against a eukaryote (insect Bombyx mori) alanine enzyme. The secondary structure of this s...
