✦ Synopsis
Partial acid hydrolysis of canine cardiac myosin heavy chains labeled with [32P]orthophosphate in myocardial cell culture yielded a peptide having a molecular weight between 700 and 1500 and containing phosphothreonine and phosphoserine. The phosphate-rich peptide of myosin heavy chains produced by partial acid hydrolysis was purified first by Sephadex gel filtration, followed by elution with a gradient of formic acid from a Dowex ion-exchange chromatograph. Further identification of the multiphosphorylated peptide was made using high voltage electrophoresis and amino acid analyses. The data described here demonstrate that partial acid hydrolysis (time dependent) can be used to produce partially acid-stable peptides in a good yield.
