We isolated a new proline-rich peptide, ChBac3.4, from leukocytes of the goat (Capra hirca) and determined its amino acid sequence by Edman degradation and mass spectrometry. ChBac3.4 (RFRLPFRRPPIRIHP PPFYPPFRRFL-NH2) had over 50% sequence identity to the Bac5 peptides found in the leukocytes of goats, sheep and cattle.
