1. This work describes the further biochemical characterization of a new calf thymus protein (TphF) and its primary structure. 2. The amino acid sequences, obtained after sequence analysis of peptides derived from the endoproteinase Lys-C digestion, were subjected to a "Protein Data Bank Search" and were found to be identical with regions of bovine superoxide-dismutase (SOD). 3. These data together with those showing the identical electrophoretic migration of SOD and TphF, their same isoelectric point and their immunoreactivity with anti-SOD antibodies, confirm the similarity of these two proteins.
