Dear Or. Brahms:

Your note In the Journal of Molecular Blology 5: 132 (1962) on'Molecular
and Enzymatic Studles of Cardiac Myosin'' was of some Interest to me

although far removed from my laboratory Interests.

i visited Japan

recently, end there met Dr. Y. Ogawa at the Natlonal Institute of Genetics,
(Yeta itlt, Sizuoke-Ken, Misima, Japan) who referred to some older work of
his on the femunological differentiation of cardiac and skeletal myosin.

| urged him to publish this finding more prominently than he had (passim,
in Japanese); In any case t hope | am doing no disservice now by bringing

him and his work to your attention.
