A peptide from human parotid secretion which inhibited hemagglutination of Bacteroides gingivalis 381 was purified by ultrafiltration followed by DEAE-Sephadex A-25 column chromatography and by gel filtration on Sephadex G-25, and then by reversed-phase HPLC. The complete amino acid sequence of the peptide, determined by automated Edman degradation was as follows; Lys-Phe-His-Glu-Lys-His-His-Ser-His-Arg-Gly-Tyr. The peptide contained 12 residues and the charged amino acids predominated with 4 histidine, 2 lysine, 1 arginine and 1 glutamic acid residues, thus being a histidine-rich peptide. The peptide was an active inhibitor of the hemagglutinating activity of B. gingivalis. Specific binding of tritium-labeled peptide to B. gingivalis cells was demonstrated. These results suggest that the histidine-rich peptide may function as a binding domain for the hemagglutinins of B. gingivalis during agglutination.
