    We have prepared peptide maps from human placenta monoamine oxidase type A (MAO-A) and bovine monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) and determined the amino acid sequences of 21 of these peptides. These sequences have been compared to the cDNA deduced amino acid sequences of human MAO-A and -B. A result of special interest is the identification of two sets of MAO-A peptides which have sequences different from those deduced from cDNA sequences. This observation is consistent with the notion that MAO-A may be composed of at two subunits which are similar but not identical in primary amino acid sequence.
