Abstract
A high molecular mass complex isolated from Xenopus laevis oocytes contains three main proteins, respectively p30, p36 and p47. The p47 protein has been reported to be an in vivo substrate of the cell division control protein kinase p34cdc2. From polypeptide sequencing, we now show that the p30 and the p47 correspond to elongation factor EF-1β and EF-1γ. Furthermore, the p30 and p36 proteins were phosphorylated in vitro by casein kinase IIKeywords
