Dietary Formulation with Poultry by-Product Meal on a Total Amino Acid vs. a Digestible Amino Acid Basis
Previous results indicated that performance of chicks fed a high level (10%) of poultry by-product meal(PBM) was lower than performance of chicks fed a corn-soybean meal (SBM) diet. The latter difference was hypothesized to be due to variation in digestible amino acid (AA) levels among the diets. This study evaluated diets containing PBM formulated on equivalent total AA basis vs. an equivalent...
متن کاملStrategy for construction of a cDNA encoding a repetitive amino acid sequence.
PCR is a powerful method with which to generate almost any desired cDNA sequence. Construction of cDNA fragments that encode repetitive amino acid sequences by PCR has proven problematic, however, because repetitive nucleotide primers tend to amplify undesired fragments because of their mis-annealing with the template. To overcome this problem, Dombrowski and Wright (2) developed a solid-phase ...
متن کاملThe Preparation, Purification, and Amino Acid Sequence of a Polypeptide Renin Substrate
A purified preparation of a polypeptide renin substrate prepared by tryptic degradation of the protein renin substrate has been analyzed by the fluorodinitrobenzene method and after degradation with renin, carboxypeptidase, and phenylisothiocyanate, has been found to possess the amino acid sequence; asp-arg-val-tyr-ileu-his-pro-phe-his-leu-leu-val-tyr-ser. The first 10 of these amino acids cons...
متن کاملAmino acid sequence of a soybean (Glycine max) seed polypeptide having a poly(L-aspartic acid) structure.
A polypeptide of Mr 4400 was isolated from soybean (Glycine max) seeds by extraction with 60% ethanol followed by ion-exchange and reverse-phase chromatography. The peptide contains an unusually high amount of aspartic acid residues (approximately 25%, and hence is designated as soybean aspartic acid-rich peptide). Its complete primary structure was determined by conventional methods to be the ...
متن کاملDetecting common amino acid sequence patterns with a gap
We have developed a program GAPE (Gap Allowing Pattern Explorer) to extract amino acid sequence motifs conserved among distantly related proteins. The GAPE program is designed to allow a gap in the sequences. When the program is applied to some ligand-related consensus sequences, motifs extracted with low expectation of occurrence contain some of the amino acid residues chemically proved to be ...
