Additional Comment
Identified glycosylation Sequon features: Consensus sequon observed Asp-Ser (DS) or Asp-Thr-Thr (DTT), at turns. DT alone may not serve as a sequon. Interestingly, the experimentally examined other five nonglycosylated DT sequons were followed by N, D and Q. Post translational modification of 4-kDa was detected by MS in 1993 (Ref. no. 3). This PTM was seen on S28 and S44 by Edman degradation. The protein migrated slowly on SDS-PAGE (compared to its theoretical weight) and was found to be heterogeneous by MS.
