A major advance was devised by Pehr Edman (University of Lund Sweden) that has become the standard method for N terminal residue analysis The Edman degrada tion IS based on the chemistry shown m Figure 27 12 A peptide reacts with phenyl iso thiocyanate to give a phenylthwcarbamoyl (PTC) denvative as shown m the first step This PTC derivative is then treated with an acid m an anhydrous medium (Edman used mtromethane saturated with hydrogen chloride) to cleave the amide bond between the N terminal ammo acid and the remainder of the peptide No other peptide bonds are cleaved m this step as amide bond hydrolysis requires water When the PTC derivative IS treated with acid m an anhydrous medium the sulfur atom of the C=S unit acts as... 

Petir Victor Edman (1916-1977) was born in Stockholm, Sweden, and received an M.D. in 1946 at the Karolinska Institute. After a year in the United States at the Rockefeller Institute, he returned to Sweden as professor at the University of Lund. In 1957, he moved to St. Vincent s School of Medical Research in Melbourne, Australia, where he developed and automated the method of peptide sequencing that bears his name. A reclusive man, he never received the prizes or recognition merited by the importance or his work. 

He was professor at the University of Lund (1947-1958) before moving back to the Karolinska Institute in 1958.
