We report that fragments of amino acid sequence recently described for tripeptidyl-peptidase I (TPP I)show that it is the rat homologue of the human CLN2 gene product that is deficient in classical late-infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, This is unexpected, since the CLN2 protein has been thought to be a carboxyl-dependent endopeptidase, but TPP I is an exopeptidase possibly of serine-type.
