Abstract In the search for a protein primer for starch synthesis, an autocatalytic self-
glucosylating protein has been isolated from sweet corn. Several tryptic
peptides were obtained from the [14C]glucosylated protein and were sequenced,
corresponding to over 40% of the estimated total sequence (molecular mass 42
kDa). There is no homology with the amino acid sequence of the autocatalytic
glycogen primer, glycogenin, nor in respect of the nature of the union between
the autocatalytically added glucose and the protein, which, in the case of the
corn protein, now named amylogenin, is a novel glucose-protein bond, a single
beta-glucose residue joined to an arginine residue.
