Inactivation of human keratin genes: the spectrum of mutations in the sequence of an acidic keratin pseudogene 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Keratins are cytoskeletal proteins encoded by a multigene family. We have identified the first human keratin pseudogene and determined its complete nucleotide sequence. Sequence comparisons indicate that the pseudogene arose from a very recent duplication of the 50-kd keratin (K14) gene. The coding and the intron sequences of the two genes are 95% and 93% identical, respectively. Although the sequence of the regulatory region in the pseudogene is virtually identical to that in the 50-kd functional gene, several deleterious mutations have been identified in the pseudogene. There are three frameshifts in the coding regions, one of which is a perfect 8-bp duplication. A single-base-pair deletion in the first exon and a single-base-pair insertion in the penultimate exon also result in frameshifts. The three remaining deleterious mutations interfere with the mRNA processing signals: two alter the intron/exon boundaries, and the third disrupts the polyadenylation signal. These mutations clearly identify the sequence as a human keratin pseudogene. 相似文献

DNA sequence of a human Sm autoimmune antigen. The multigene family contains a processed pseudogene 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

The sequence of a complementary DNA clone coding for a human autoimmune antigen has been determined. This DNA sequence predicts the amino acid sequence of a small protein ("E") which is associated with small nuclear RNA in human cells. Analysis of the predicted protein sequence suggests that the E protein is not closely related to other nucleic acid binding proteins. Screening of a human genomic DNA library has led to the isolation of several members of the E protein multigene family. Sequence analysis of one member of this family reveals that it is flanked by direct repeats and contains several mutations. One of these mutations, an insertion, terminates the long open reading frame. These features are compatible with the designation of this sequence as a processed pseudogene. 相似文献

A chromosomal DNA sequence harboring a processed AK2B pseudogene was isolated from a human genomic library. It was a variant of the AK2B gene sequence including several point mutations, deletions, and insertions. The nucleotide sequence of the ORF of the AK2B pseudogene predicted a truncated form of the AK2B mutant suggesting that the processed pseudogene is nonfunctional. A repetitive sequence, AAAAGAGAG, found in the 5' and 3' flanking regions of the pseudogene and the poly(A) tract in the 3' end junction suggest that a mRNA of AK2B may have been converted to the processed pseudogene by retrotransposition events. Previously, it was suggested that an adenylate kinase (AK) 2 related gene on chromosome 2, confirmed by Southern analysis using somatic cell hybrid cell lines, may be a processed pseudogene. It is proposed that the processed pseudogene isolated in this study may be the AK2 related nonfunctional gene localized on human chromosomes 2. 相似文献

Two human genomic clones containing the lactate dehydrogenase-B processed pseudogene were isolated from two patients deficient in lactate dehydrogenase-B isozyme. The sequences of 3,287 nucleotides, including the pseudogenes and its flanking regions, from both clones were found to be identical except for three differences in the pseudogenes. The sequences of 1,286 nucleotides from these two pseudogenes exhibited 93% homology with the cDNA sequence of the lactate dehydrogenase-B functional gene, and the pseudogene contained 75/76 base substitutions, 11/12 single-base deletions, and 5 single-base insertions. This pseudogene was mapped to the x-chromosome by dot-blot analysis using a probe for the pseudogene or its 5' flanking sequence. 相似文献

Repetitive nucleotide sequence insertions into a novel calmodulin-related gene and its processed pseudogene 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A gene containing a transposon-like human repeat element, called THE 1, has been isolated and characterized. The gene, termed T+, encodes a polypeptide resembling known calcium-binding proteins. The THE 1 element is present in the 3'-untranslated region of its message. The cDNA clone corresponding to the gene's mRNA product led to the identification of this gene. A processed RNA pseudogene related to the authentic gene has also been isolated. In addition to intron processing, this pseudogene differs from the gene in that it contains an interspersed Alu repeat instead of a THE 1 element in the 3'-untranslated region. Thus, we compare a site containing a THE 1 element to an ancestrally related transposon-less target site. The comparison suggests a retroviral-related mechanism of THE 1 insertion. This system is unusual in that the parent gene is associated with three distinct retrotransposition events: the parent gene was converted to a processed RNA pseudogene, an Alu repeat inserted into the pseudogene, and a THE 1 element inserted into the parent gene. 相似文献

Cloning and sequencing of a processed pseudogene derived from a human class III alcohol dehydrogenase gene 下载免费PDF全文
Current information on the molecular structure of human alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) genes is fragmentary. To characterize all ADH genes, we have isolated 63 ADH clones from human genomic libraries made from one individual. Fifty-nine clones have been classified into five previously known loci: ADH1 (18 clones), ADH2 (20 clones), and ADH3 class I (16 clones), ADH4 class II (4 clones), and ADH5 class III (1 clone). Sequencing of one of the remaining four unclassified clones, SY lambda ADHE38, about 1.1 kb in length, shows no introns and three frameshift mutations in the coding region, with a total of 10 internal termination codons. When its deduced amino acid sequence was compared with those of the class I, class II, and class III ADHs, the proportions of identical amino acids were 56.7%, 55.5%, and 88.7%, respectively, suggesting that the processed pseudogene was derived from an ADH5 gene. The duplication event seems to have occurred about 3.5 million years ago, and the pseudogene has undergone a rapid change since then. 相似文献

The human c-Ha-ras2 is a processed pseudogene inactivated by numerous base substitutions. 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4 下载免费PDF全文
The human c-Ha-ras2 gene, one of two known members of the Harvey ras family, is reportedly located on the X-chromosome and has lost introns (1, 2). There has heretofore been no information on its precise gene structure and oncogenic potential. We have determined the nucleotide sequence of the c-Ha-ras2 and demonstrate that it is a processed pseudogene surrounded by several direct repeats and contains numerous base substitutions as well as a notable mutation (AGT at codon 12 of the p21 protein) responsible for oncogenic conversion of the known ras genes (3-8). 相似文献

We have isolated, sequenced, and characterized a single-copy B creatine kinase pseudogene. The chromosomal assignment of this gene is 16p13 and a unique sequence probe from this locus detects EcoRI restriction fragment length polymorphisms of 7.8 and 5.4 kb. In 26 unrelated individuals, the frequencies for the 7.8- and 5.4-kb B creatine kinase pseudogene alleles were calculated to be 17.3 and 82.7%, respectively. The B creatine kinase pseudogene is interrupted by a 904-bp DNA insertion composed of three Alu repeat sequences in tandem flanked by an 18-bp direct repeat, derived from the pseudogene sequence. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the Alu elements suggests that the Alu sequences were incorporated into this locus in three separate integration events. Several complex clustered Alu repeat sequences without defined integration borders have been previously identified at different genomic loci. This is the first evidence that complex tandem Alu elements can integrate in an apparently serial manner in the human genome and supports the contention that Alu repeats integrate nonrandomly into the human genome. 相似文献

Southern hybridization analysis of the MASP1 gene using an intron-specific probe detected a single band. An exon-specific probe detected several bands. PCR of genomic DNA using several exon-specific primer sets of MASP1 produced short and long products. Sequence of the shorter products corresponded to the processed pseudogene of MASP1. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, this pseudogene (MASP1P1) was mapped to 1p34. 相似文献
