AC133-2, a novel isoform of human AC133 stem cell antigen

Human AC133 antigen, also called CD133, was recently identified as a hematopoietic stem cell marker. However, the molecular structure and function of this protein has remained unclear. Here we cloned and identified a novel isoform of AC133, which we named AC133-2. In comparison to the reported AC133 cDNA, which is referred to herein as AC133-1, a small exon of 27 nucleotides is deleted in AC133-2 by alternative mRNA splicing. Similar to the previously characterized AC133 antigen, recombinant AC133-2 expressed in 293 cells was glycosylated and transported to plasma membrane. AC133-2 mRNA was found predominant in a variety of human fetal tissue, adult tissues, and several carcinomas. In contrast, AC133-1 mRNA was more prominent in fetal brain and adult skeletal muscle but was not detected in fetal liver and kidney, adult pancreas, kidney, and placenta, suggesting different roles for the two isoforms in fetal development and mature organ homeostasis. Here, we demonstrate that AC133-2 is the isoform expressed on hematopoietic stem cells derived from fetal liver, bone marrow, and peripheral blood. The results indicate that AC133-2, not AC133-1, has been the cell surface antigen recognized by anti-AC133 monoclonal antibodies that are used for isolation of hematopoietic stem cells. To further investigate its expression in other stem cell populations, we found that AC133-2 co-expressed with beta(1) integrin in the basal layer of human neonatal epidermis. AC133-2(+)/beta(1) integrin(+) cells proliferated and differentiated in culture, which coincided with a loss of AC133-2 and gain in a terminal differentiation marker involucrin. Taken together, these results suggest that AC133-2 is expressed in multiple stem cell niches and may provide a means to isolate specific stem cell subpopulations from human tissues.

Isolation and nucleotide sequence of a full-length cDNA coding for aldolase B from human liver.

Two recombinant clones, pA2 and pA3, containing cDNA sequences for human aldolase B have been isolated from a full length human liver cDNA library. The larger one, pA3, has been subcloned in M13 phage and completely sequenced with the chain terminator method. The sequence covers 1,600 nucleotides including the whole coding region (1,050 nucleotides), 67 nucleotides from the 5' non-coding region and the whole 3' non-coding region, 440 nucleotides long, down to the poly-A tail. Comparison with rabbit aldolase A and with a partial sequence of rat aldolase B, shows a homology of about 76% for aldolase A and of about 94% for aldolase B, which indicates that the sequenced cDNA codes for the liver isoenzyme. This is the first complete sequence reported for human aldolase B. The pA3 clone strongly hybridizes to 18S mRNA from human adult liver as expected from the size of the isolated cDNA.     

Amino acid sequence of human histidine-rich glycoprotein derived from the nucleotide sequence of its cDNA

A lambda gt 11 library containing cDNA inserts prepared from human liver mRNA has been screened with an affinity-purified antibody to human histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) and then with a restriction fragment isolated from the 5' end of the largest cDNA insert obtained by antibody screening. A number of positive clones were identified and shown to code for HRG by DNA sequence analysis. A total of 2067 nucleotides were determined by sequencing 3 overlapping cDNA clones, which included 121 nucleotides of 5'-noncoding sequence, 54 nucleotides coding for a leader sequence of 18 amino acids, 1521 nucleotides coding for the mature protein of 507 amino acids, a stop codon of TAA, and 352 nucleotides of 3'-noncoding sequence followed by a poly(A) tail of 16 nucleotides. The length of the noncoding sequence of the 3' end differed in several clones, but each contained a polyadenylylation or processing sequence of AATAAA followed by a poly(A) tail. More than half of the amino acid sequence of HRG consisted of five different types of internal repeats. Within the last 3 internal repeats (type V), there were 12 tandem repetitions of a 5 amino acid segment with a consensus sequence of Gly-His-His-Pro-His. This repeated portion, referred to as a "histidine-rich region", contained 53% histidine and showed a high degree of similarity to a histidine-rich region of high molecular weight kininogen.
