Abstract
THE 3S γ1-globulin of normal human plasma1 is known to possess chemical and physicochemical properties that are very similar to those of carbonic anhydrase B of human erythrocytes2,3. The amino(N)-terminal amino groups of both proteins appear substituted and that of carbonic anhydrase B was reported to be acetylated4. To obtain evidence for the identity of these two proteins and to elucidate further their primary structure, the N-terminal amino-acid sequence of human 3S γ1-globulin and carbonic anhydrase B was investigated.
