Abstract

The bovine lens multicatalytic proteinase complex (MPC) (HW 100 kDa) comprises at least twelve subunits in the molecular mass range 22-35 kDa. Three of the subunits, Ll (27 kDa), L2 (24 kDa) and L3 (29 kDa) , were purified by reverse phase HPLC. Their amino acid composition and Nterminal sequences indicate that they are not identical. Ll and L2 subUnits show very high (>90%) sequence homology with specific subunits of rat liver and human reticulocyte MPC and these are considered to be homologous components of the MPC which are highly conserved in evolution.
