The structural relationship between apolipoprotein B-100 (apo-B-100) and apolipoprotein B-48 (apo-B-48) has not been elucidated. A peptide fragment (MDB-18) of approximately 6 kDa was isolated from a tryptic digest of apo-B-100. The sequence of the first 22 amino acids of MDB-18 was determined by Edman degradation. A 15-residue peptide corresponding to this sequence was synthesized by the solid-phase method and was utilized to develop a sequence-specific polyclonal antibody. On immunoblot analysis, the antibody recognized both intact apo-B-100 and apo-B-48. In addition, preincubating the antibody with the synthetic peptide abolished the recognition of both apo-B-100 and apo-B-48. These data are interpreted as indicating that there is an amino acid sequence homology between apo-B-100 and apo-B-48. Since the MDB-18 peptide is located in the carboxyl region of the B-100 molecule, we propose apo-B-100 and apo-B-48 share a common carboxyl region sequence.
