Structure and expression of cDNA for D-amino acid oxidase active against cephalosporin C from Fusarium solani

D-Amino acid oxidase (DAO) was extracted and purified from cultured mycelia of Fusarium solani M-0718 (FERM P-2688). The enzyme was able to oxidatively deaminate cephalosporin C to 7-beta-(5-carboxy-5-oxopentanamido)cephalosporanic acid. Ninety-eight amino acid residues of the F. solani DAO were determined by sequence analysis of 9 peptides derived from Acromobacter protease I digests of the protein. Complementary DNAs encoding F. solani DAO were isolated from the F. solani cDNA library by hybridization with synthetic oligonucleotide probes corresponding to the partial amino acid sequences. Analysis of the nucleotide sequences of the clones revealed a 1,186-nucleotide sequence with a 5'-terminal untranslated region of 41 nucleotides, an open reading frame of 1,083 nucleotides that encoded 361 amino acids, and a 3'-terminal untranslated region of 62 nucleotides. The amino acid sequence of F. solani DAO had 25% homology to that of porcine kidney DAO [EC 1.4.3.3] and 37% homology to that of Trigonopsis variabilis DAO. The constructed plasmid overproduced F. solani DAO in Escherichia coli. The recombinant DAO had almost the same molecular activity as the native DAO against cephalosporin C.     

Rat liver glutathione S-transferases. Nucleotide sequence analysis of a Yb1 cDNA clone and prediction of the complete amino acid sequence of the Yb1 subunit

We have constructed a nearly full length cDNA clone, pGTA/C44, complementary to the rat liver glutathione S-transferase Yb1 mRNA. The nucleotide sequence of pGTA/C44 has been determined, and the complete amino acid sequence of the Yb1 subunit has been deduced. The cDNA clone contains an open reading frame of 654 nucleotides encoding a polypeptide comprising 218 amino acids with Mr = 25,919. The NH2-terminal sequence deduced from DNA sequence analysis of pGTA/C44 is in agreement with the first 19 amino acids determined for purified glutathione S-transferase A, a Yb1 homodimer, by Frey et al. (Frey, A. B., Friedberg, T., Oesch, F., and Kreibich, G. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 11321-11325). The DNA sequence of pGTA/C44 shares significant sequence homology with a cDNA clone, pGT55, which is complementary to a mouse liver glutathione S-transferase (Pearson, W. R., Windle, J. J., Morrow, J. F., Benson, A. M., and Talalay, P. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 2052-2062). We have also determined 37 nucleotides of the 5'-untranslated region and 348 nucleotides of the 3'-untranslated region of the Yb1 mRNA. The Yb1 mRNA and subunit do not share any sequence homology with the rat liver glutathione S-transferase Ya or Yc mRNAs or their corresponding subunits. These data provide the first direct evidence that the Yb1 subunit is derived from a gene or gene family which is distinct from the Ya-Yc gene family.     

Molecular cloning and sequencing of a cDNA clone encoding a new calcium binding protein, named calgizzarin, from rabbit lung

We purified a new EF-hand type calcium binding protein from chicken gizzard smooth muscle, tentatively named calgizzarin (Todoroki, H., et al. J. Biol. Chem. (1991) in press. Based on the internal peptide sequence of calgizzarin, we isolated and sequenced a cDNA clone coding for calgizzarin from a rabbit lung cDNA library. This clone (pCALG) has 309 nucleotides of open reading frame including termination codon TGA, 621 nucleotides of the 5' leader and 186 nucleotides of the 3' noncoding region. The polypeptides deduced from the open reading frame were consisted of 102 amino acid residues with a molecular weight of 11,429. Computer aided homology analysis revealed that calgizzarin exhibits a 43.2% homology to S-100 alpha, 38.6% to S-100 beta and 40.0% to annexin II light chain, p10. By Northern blot analysis, with pCALG, a band of 1.1 kbp was detected in rabbit lung, suggesting pCALG contains nearly full length of mRNA.     

A cDNA coding for human sex hormone binding globulin. Homology to vitamin K-dependent protein S

Affinity purified antibodies to human sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) were used in screening a human liver cDNA library, constructed in the expression vector lambda gt11. One clone, identified as producing recombinant SHBG, carried a cDNA insert of 1.1 kb. The nucleotide sequence of the insert had an open reading frame coding for 356 amino acid residues. The coding sequence was followed by a short 3'-region of 19 non-translated nucleotides and a poly(A) tail. Confirmation that the cDNA clone represented human SHBG was obtained by the finding of a complete agreement in amino acid sequence with several peptide fragments generated from purified SHBG by proteolytic cleavage. The primary structure of SHBG shows a considerable homology to that of protein S, a vitamin K-dependent protein with functions in the coagulation system.     

Cytosolic triosephosphate isomerase is a single gene in rice.

A cDNA clone encoding rice (Oryza sativa L.) cytosolic triosephosphate isomerase (TPI), an important glycolytic enzyme, was isolated and characterized. The clone (pRTPI-6) contains an open reading frame of 759 base pairs, encoding a polypeptide chain of 253 amino acid residues (M(r) 27,060). The identity of this clone was defined by its high homology (85% nucleotide sequence and 89% amino acid sequence identical match) with a maize mRNA sequence encoding the cytosolic TPI and with TPIs from other species. Genomic DNA blot analysis using the cDNA as a probe showed that the cytosolic TPI gene is present as a single copy per haploid rice genome, as opposed to that found in maize, in which multiple TPI gene copies exist. A single TPI mRNA species of about 1100 nucleotides was detected by gel blot hybridization analysis of RNA isolated from root, culm, and leaf tissues, indicating that its expression is ubiquitous. Based on sequence comparison and molecular analysis, we propose that the chloroplast-located TPI may be encoded by divergent structural nuclear genes in rice.     

The complete sequence of RNA segment 2 of influenza A/NT/60/68 P1 protein.

A DNA copy of influenza A/NT/60/68 viral RNA segment 2, corresponding to protein P1, has been cloned in the E.coli plasmid pBr322. The clone is 2341 nucleotides long and represents a full-length copy of the viral RNA. In the viral complementary (plus sense) strand there is an open reading frame that is 2271 nucleotides long. The predicted primary gene product is a basic 86,300 dalton protein with a net charge at neutral pH of +23. A 29 amino acid stretch of the protein (coded by nucleotide residues 583-669) is highly basic and contains 7 lysine and 8 arginine residues. Other smaller clusters of basic amino acids are also present in the protein.     

Primary structure of a genomic zein sequence of maize.

The nucleotide sequence of a genomic clone (termed Z4 ) of the zein multigene family was compared to the nucleotide sequence of related cDNA clones of zein mRNAs. A tandem duplication of a 96-bp sequence is found in the genomic clone that is not present in the related cDNA clones. When the duplication is disregarded, the nucleotide sequence homology between Z4 and its related cDNAs was approximately 97%. The nucleotide sequence is also compared to other isolated cDNAs. No introns in the coding region of the zein gene are detected. The first nucleotide of a putative TATA box, TATAAATA , was located 88 nucleotides upstream of the first nucleotide of the first ATG codon which initiated the open reading frame. The first nucleotide of a putative CCAAT box, CAAAAT , appeared 45 nucleotides upstream of the first nucleotide of the zein cDNA clones in the 3' non-coding region also appeared in the genomic sequence at the same locations. The amino acid composition of the polypeptide specified by the Z4 nucleotide sequence is similar to the known composition of zein proteins.     

Complete amino acid sequence of subunit e of rat liver mitochondrial H(+)-ATP synthase.

Subunit e of H(+)-ATP synthase from rat liver mitochondria was isolated from the purified enzyme by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The amino acid sequence of the subunit was determined by automated Edman degradation of the whole protein and derived peptides. The nucleotide sequence of the import precursor of subunit e of rat liver H(+)-ATP synthase was determined from a recombinant cDNA clone isolated by screening a rat hepatoma cell line H4TG cDNA library with a probe DNA. The sequence was composed of 289 nucleotides including a coding region for the import precursor of subunit e and noncoding regions on the 5'- and 3'-sides. The possible import precursor of subunit e and its mature polypeptide deduced from the open reading frame consisted of 71 and 70 amino acid residues with molecular weights of 8254 and 8123, respectively. Subunit e is a basic hydrophilic protein with an isoelectric point of 9.78. The sequence of the rat subunit e is highly homologous with that of subunit e of bovine heart, but has no homology with any subunit of bacterial or chloroplast H(+)-ATP synthase. The function of subunit e is unknown. However, a homology search in the database of the National Biomedical Research Foundation revealed that residues 34-65 of subunit e are homologous with residues 90-117 of troponin T, and with residues 529-561 of h-caldesmon and residues 289-319 of l-caldesmon, which are the homologous sequences corresponding to the Ca(2+)-dependent tropomyosin-binding region of troponin T.     

The ura5 gene of the ascomycete Sordaria macrospora: molecular cloning, characterization and expression in Escherichia coli

We cloned the ura5 gene coding for the orotate phosphoribosyl transferase from the ascomycete Sordaria macrospora by heterologous probing of a Sordaria genomic DNA library with the corresponding Podospora anserina sequence. The Sordaria gene was expressed in an Escherichia coli pyrE mutant strain defective for the same enzyme, and expression was shown to be promoted by plasmid sequences. The nucleotide sequence of the 1246-bp DNA fragment encompassing the region of homology with the Podospora gene has been determined. This sequence contains an open reading frame of 699 nucleotides. The deduced amino acid sequence shows 72% similarity with the corresponding Podospora protein.
