Chemical characterization of ectopic ACTH purified from a malignant thymic carcinoid tumor.

P J Lowry, L H Rees, S Tomlin, G Gillies, J Landon.   

Abstract

ACTH was purified from thymic tumor associated with ectopic ACTH production by gel filtration and ion exchange chromatography. Amino acid composition and C- and N-terminal analyses indicated that this tumor ACTH was comprised of the 2-38 sequence of authentic pituitary ACTH. The observations suggest that the mode of cleavage of this tumor ACTH from its precursor is different from that of pituitary ACTH.
