[Analysis of the trypsin hydrolysate of a 40-kDa protein, found in the nucleoprotein of serum. Identification of it as alpha(1)-acidic glycoprotein (orosomucoid)].

From the tryptic hydrolysis of 40-kDa protein from the mouse blood serum thirty-four peptides were isolated by HPLC, of which complete and partial amino acid sequence was established for twenty-eight and six, respectively. On the basis of these data the protein is identified as the blood serum alpha 1-acid glycoprotein.
