A comparison of the human relaxins

Note that the mature form of H1 relaxin is unknown, so the expected molecular
weight of the predicted peptide is given. b The H3 relaxin data are based on solid phase chemical synthesis and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (Ref. 48). |
