We have determined the sequence of a partial cDNA clone encoding the C-terminal region of bovine cartilage aggregating proteoglycan core protein. The deduced amino acid sequence contains a cysteine-rich region which is homologous with chicken hepatic lectin. This lectin-homologous region has previously been identified in rat and chicken cartilage proteoglycan. The bovine sequence presented here is highly homologous with the rat and chicken amino acid sequences in this apparently globular region. A region containing clusters of Ser-Gly sequences is located N-terminal to the lectin homology domain. These Ser-Gly-rich segments are arranged in tandemly repeated, approx. 100-residue-long, homology domains. Each homology domain consists of an approx. 75-residue-long Ser-Gly-rich region separated by an approx. 25-residue-long segment lacking Ser-Gly dipeptides. These dipeptides are arranged in 10-residue-long segments in the 100-residue-long homology domains. The shorter homologous segments are tandemly repeated some six times in each 100-residue-long homology domain. Serine residues in these repeats are potential attachment sites for chondroitin sulphate chains.
