ABSTRACT:
A method of C-terminal peptide sequencing. The peptide is reacted with a mixed anhydride of isothiocyanic acid and a carboxylic, carbonic, or sulfonic acid, under basic conditions, to produce a C-terminal peptidyl thiohydantoin. The C-terminal amino acid can be identified by cleaving the thiohydantoin from the peptide and identifying the free amino acid thiohydantoin.
