N2  - The 20-kDa precursor of hevein and its C-terminal 14-kDa domain were isolated. Sequence analysis of the C-terminal tryptic peptides of these proteins and comparison with the cDNA sequence indicated that they represented mature forms from which a C-terminal propeptide, possibly involved in vacuolar targeting, had been removed. The molar ration of hevein to the C-terminal domain in the lutoid-body fraction of rubber latex is about 30:1. This indicates that not only the pre- and propeptides, but also the 14-kDa domain are removed by proteolysis or other processes in the latex vessel after the processing of hevein has taken place
