Fast atom bombardment mass spectra of various peptides from sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein.
The sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein of the crayfish Astacus leptodactylus is a calciprotein. The primary structure of this protein has been determined. Tryptic digestion of the denaturated protein followed by high-performance liquid chromatographic separation identified essentially eight peptides. The structure of these peptides has been confirmed after amino acid analysis by fast atom bombardment spectra in positive mode.
