  • Title: Asian macaque pepsinogens and pepsins.
    Author: Kageyama T.
    Journal: J Med Primatol; 1994 Sep; 23(7):375-81. PubMed ID: 7731027.
    Abstract:
    Five pepsinogens were purified from the gastric mucosa of eight species of Asian macaques. The chromatographic behavior of each pepsinogen was essentially the same but differed from human and other mammalian pepsinogens. The major pepsinogen in each species was pepsinogen A-1, accounting for 29-48% of the total. Amino acid compositions and some enzymatic properties of derived pepsins were similar for the various monkey species. This high degree of similarity confirms that these species are closely related to one another.
