Nucleotide and primary amino acid sequence of porcine lactoferrin

J P Lydon et al. Biochim Biophys Acta. .

Abstract

A cDNA encoding porcine lactoferrin (pLF) was isolated from a porcine mammary gland lambda gt11 cDNA library using human lactoferrin cDNA as the hybridization probe. Nucleotide sequence analysis indicates that pLF is 686 amino acids in length and shares 72.6%, 70.7% and 62.2% overall amino acid sequence identity with bovine, human and murine lactoferrin, respectively.
