Materials and MethodsRat mast cell protease I (RMCP I) was prepared as de-scribed by Everett et al.(1979). jV-(/t-Tosyl)-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone-trypsin (TPCK-trypsin) was purchased from Millipore. Citraconic anhydrideand BNPS-skatole were purchased from Pierce Chemical Co. Lysyl endopeptidase from Achromobacter lyticus was a gift from Dr. T. Masaki, Ibaraki University, Japan. All other reagents and solvents were commercially obtained as analytical or HPLC grades. Reduction and Carboxymethylation. RMCP I (120 nmol) was reduced by incubation under nitrogenfor 2 h at room temperature in 0.4 mL of 6 M guanidine hydrochloride 0.5 M Tris-HCl, 10 mM EDTA, and 45 mM dithiothreitol, pH 8.6. A freshly prepared solution of 100 mM iodoacetic acid in 100 pL of 1 N NaOH was then added, and the mixture was incubated in the dark at room temperature for 30 min. CMRMCP I was purified by reversed-phase HPLC on an Ul-trapore RPSC-C3 column (Altex). Specific Cleavage of RMCP I. Cleavage at arginyl residues was achieved by digesting N-citraconylated protein with TPCK-trypsin. CM-RMCP I (20 nmol) was N-citraconylated (Atassi & Habeeb, 1972) in 0.5 mL of 6 M guanidine hy-drochloride by addition of 16 pL of citraconic anhydride at room temperature over a period of 1 h while maintaining the pH at 8.8 with a pH-salt. The citraconylated protein was then extensively dialyzed against 0.05 M NH4HC03 at pH 8.7. TPCK-trypsin was added in two aliquots over a 4-h period at
