Complete hydrolysis of a polypeptide gives: Gly, 3 Leu, 2 Tyr, 2 Phe, 2 Lys, Ser, 2 Met, Ala, Val, Ile, Arg, Pro • Cyanogen bromide generates a tripeptide, a heptapeptide, and an octapeptide; each is sequenced: • Leu-Pro-Phe • Gly-Leu-Trr-Phe-Lys-Ser-Met • Ala-Leu-Tyr-Lys-Val-Ile-Arg-Met
Partial hydrolysis with trypsin gives a tripeptide, a tetrapeptide, a pentapeptide, and a hexapeptide; each is sequenced: • Val-Ile-Arg • Met-Leu-Pro-Phe • Gly-Leu-Tyr-Phe-Lys • Ser-Met-Ala-Leu-Tyr-Lys • What is the sequence for the original polypeptide?
