The amino acid sequence of dahlemense, a naturally occuring strain of tobacco mosaic virus, has been determined and compared with that of the strain vulgare (Fig. 7). In this communication the experimental details are given for the elucidation of the amino acid sequences within two tryptic peptides with 65 amino acids.

The sequence of amino acids within the coat protein of the strain Holmes rib grass of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) has been determined. In this communication the amino acid compositions of the coat protein and of all tryptic peptides are reported. Furthermore the experimental details are given for the elucidation of the amino acid sequences within the first three tryptic peptides, containing 61 amino acids.It has been found that the strain Holmes rib grass differs very extensively in the primary structure from the other TMV strains whose sequences are known. It differs from each of the other strains in more than 50% of the amino acid positions and it contains two amino acids less per protein subunit than the other TMV strains.

Experimental data for determining a) the amino acid sequences of eight tryptic peptides containing 95 amino acids and b) the order of the tryptic peptides are given. Combining the data of this and of a previous paper the complete amino acid sequence of the coat protein of the TMV strain Holmes rib grass (HRG) is established (Fig. 5). It is compared with three other TMV strains the sequences of which have been determined before (Fig. 6).Differences and similarities between the sequences of the four TMV strains are discussed. HRG has a deletion of two amino acids and it is the most distantly related of the four TMV strains. When the sequence of HRG is compared to that of any of the other strains it turns out that in each case more than 50% of the 156 positions contain different amino acids (Fig. 7).The number of positions with the same amino acid in all strains and mutants so far studied is 30 per cent. These positions are not randomly distributed but clustered mainly in two regions. This finding probably reflects the restriction of amino acid exchanges by the spatial structure of the viral rod.

Twenty peptides of tobacco mosaic virus protein covering the whole amino acid sequence of the polypeptide chain have been tested for their capacity to inhibit the quantitative precipitation of tobacco mosaic virus with the specific antibodies. Only four amino acid sequences, representing 15-20% of the polypeptide chain, have been found to diminish quantitative precipitation of TMV with anti TMV serum. Lack of additivity of the individual inhibition values gives evidence that the specific antibodies are not directed against isolated amino acid sequences.

Triticum mosaic virus (TriMV) is a recently discovered virus infecting wheat. We compared Colorado isolates C10-492 and C11-775 with the 06-123 isolate. Comparisons were made using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), infectivity assay, host range, dry weight (DW), inoculation of ‘Mace’ wheat with temperature-sensitive resistance to Wheat streak mosaic virus, and the deduced amino acid sequence of the coat proteins (CP) and P1 proteins. Both C10-492 and C11-775 infected ‘Gallatin’ barley and, when compared with 06-123, had significantly reduced ELISA values and virus titers in wheat. Both Colorado isolates caused symptomless infections in Mace, whereas 06-123 caused mosaic symptoms. The amino acid sequences of the CP differed by two and one amino acids for C10-492 and C11-775, respectively, compared with 06-123. The sequence of C10-492 differed from C11-775 by one amino acid. The P1 amino acid sequence of C10-492 and C11-775 differed from 06-123 by three and one amino acids, respectively. The C10-492 and C11-775 isolates reduced DW significantly in ‘Karl 92’ but significantly less than 06-123. In ‘2317’ wheat, the Colorado isolates did not consistently cause significant reduction in DW, while 06-123 did. The data collectively indicate that C10-492 and C11-775 are isolates of TriMV showing biological behavior diverse from that of 06-123.

The amino acid sequences of the cytochromes c-551 from three species of Pseudomonas have been determined. Each resembles the protein from Pseudomonas strain P6009 (now known to be Pseudomonas aeruginosa, not Pseudomonas fluorescens) in containing 82 amino acids in a single peptide chain, with a haem group covalently attached to cysteine residues 12 and 15. In all four sequences 43 residues are identical. Although by bacteriological criteria the organisms are closely related, the differences between pairs of sequences range from 22% to 39%. These values should be compared with the differences in the sequence of mitochondrial cytochrome c between mammals and amphibians (about 18%) or between mammals and insects (about 33%). Detailed evidence for the amino acid sequences of the proteins has been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50015 at the National Lending Library for Science and Technology, Boston Spa, Yorks. LS23 7BQ, U.K., from whom copies can be obtained on the terms indicated in Biochem. J. (1973), 131, 5.
