Abstract
From a pronase hydrolysate of the 7S globulin of cottonseeds, using a column containing Sephadex G-25 and paper chromatography, a glycopeptide has been isolated which contains in its molecule residues of aspartic acid, glucosamine, and mannose in a ratio of 1:2:5. It has been shown by an analysis of the products of the methylation of the glycopeptide that the carbohydrate chain has a branched structure.
