The related heptapeptide lacking the N-terminal Ile also had pigment-enhancing activity. A sequence similarity search showed that these sequences are present only in mammal albumins. %K Bovinos %K Medios de cultivo %K Humanos %K Oligopéptidos %K Pigmentos biológicos %K Albúmina sérica %K Animales %K Infecciones estreptocócicas %~
