摘要
The amino acid sequence of portions of the variable regions of the light chains from six Waldenstrom macroglobulins has been determined. Four of the six proteins studied show evidence of binding activity. No distinctive sequences which correlated with the functional properties of the active proteins were observed. The data also strengthen previous evidence that light chains associated with μ-type heavy chains are not as a group distinguishable from those associated with other heavy-chain classes. © 1969, American Chemical Society.
