The molecular weight of Myrothecium cellulase was estimated by the Archibald method to be approximately 49,000. No N-terminal amino acid could be detected by the Edman degradation or with fluorodinitrobenzene. Hydrazinolysis gave glycine as the C-terminal amino acid. No free sulphydryl groups could be detected in the enzyme. The amino acid composition and the fingerprint pattern after tryptic digestion were determined.

Staphylocoagulase, an exoprotein of coagulase positive staphylocoagulase, has been purified to a state in which only trace amounts of contaminating proteins are detectable.Purification was more than 35,000 fold, which is 7 times more than the highest value reported in the literature. The yield was about 15%.Aspartic acid was found as a single N-terminal amino acid in this preparation. The molecular weight is 61,000 and the isoelectric point lies at pH 4.53.The amino acid composition was determined.

The present paper continues the study of the reduced and S-carboxymethylated high-sulphur proteins from mouse hair. Fractions have been obtained in a substantially purified form by fractional precipitation with ammonium sulphate at pH 6, followed by ion exchange chromatography on cellulose phosphate at pH 2�6. Approximately 80% by weight of the high-sulphur proteins fall into the ultra-high-sulphur category (carboxymethyicysteine content greater than 26 residues per 100 residues), and they cover a molecular weight range of 17000-28000. The components show a remarkable diversity in amino acid composition; for example the contents of arginine and glycine each vary by about 3 : 1. The remainder of the proteins contain 17-20 residues per 100 residues of carboxymethyicysteine, are smaller in size (molecular weight 11 500), and also show great diversity in overall amino acid composition.
