“…Peptide mapping has, in some cases, however, successfully demonstrated sequence homology that may have arisen by gene duplication and fusion. The following are examples: human transferrin (Mann et al, 1970), leucyl-tRNA synthetase (Waterson and Konigsberg, 1974), methionyl-tRNA synthetase (Koch et al, 1974;Bruton et al, 1974), and valyl-tRNA synthetase (Koch et al, 1974). With each of these proteins the peptide maps revealed fewer peptides than expected for a nonduplicated sequence.…”
