Structural analysis of fibronectin and its collagen-binding fragment from several cell lines.

RESUMO

Tryptic peptide mapping of fibronectin from various species indicates that (i) there exists a remarkable similarity between methionine-labeled tryptic peptides of fibronectins isolated from cells of widely separated species such as human, chicken, mouse, hamster, and rat; (ii) fibronectins from normal and transformed or tumor cells of the same species are very similar, if not identical; and (iii) collagen-binding regions of fibronectin from different species share identical major peptides.
