Abstract

The A 5 subunit of the glycinin seed storage protein of soybean was purified by ion‐exchange chromatography followed by preparative SDS‐gel electrophoresis and the complete amino acid sequence was determined. The A 5 subunit is composed of 97 amino acids which correspond to an M r of ~10600. Approx. 86% of the sequence of the A 5 subunit was found to be identical to that of the NH 2 ‐terminal region of the A 3 subunit of the glycinin determined previously. Also, the A 4 subunit of the glycinin was purified and the partial sequence was determined. The sequence of the A 4 subunit was estimated to be highly homologous to that of the COOH‐terminal region of the A 3 subunit.
