Abstract
Significant amino acid homologies were found between β-galactosidase fragments and lac repressor of E. coli using a sliding match according to Greller and Erhan (1974). Since both of these proteins can recognise and bind galactose moiety, we propose that the homologous regions represent galactose binding site (s) on both proteins. Possible application of homology studies to problems of protein and nuclei acid chemistry is also discussed.
