The amino acid content in human hypophyseal growth hormone has been determined by chromatography on resin columns. On the basis of 29,000 for the molecular weight, the empirical formula of the hormone was obtained: lys13his5arg14asp27 thr14ser23glu34pro12gly13ala12-(1/2 cys)6val12met4-ileu10leu31tyr10phe15try1(NH3)32.
