    • Abstract:  A modified procedure for the purification of E. coli galactose-1-phosphat e uridyl transferase (E.C. 2.7.6.12) was developed which reproducibly gives pure enzyme. The purified enzyme was shown to be a dimeric protein with a subunit molecular weight of 41,000 and its amino acid composition and content of free sulfhydryl groups were determined. The N-terminal and C-terminal amino acid sequences were found to be NH2-thr-gln-phe-asn- pro-val-asp and -ser(val leu)-ala-COOH respectively. This N-terminal sequence allowed the identification of the start of the transferase gene in the DNA sequence determined by GRINDLEY. Furthermore it appears to define a nine base intercistronic region between the epimerase and transferase genes.
