Direct cloning of a target gene from a pool of homologous sequences: complete cDNA sequence of a weak neurotoxin from cobra Naja kaouthia

Selective cloning of the cDNA coding for a weak neurotoxin (WTX) from cobra N. kaouthia including the 5'- and 3'-non-translated regions (NTR) is described. The known amino acid sequence of WTX was used together with the nucleotide sequence of a weak neurotoxin NNAM2 from cobra Naja atra, to design WTX-specific primers for direct amplification of an internal WTX cDNA fragment by RT- PCR. The sequence of the complete WTX cDNA was determined in sequencing runs on internal PCR products, cloned 3'- and 5'-RACE-fragments and several full-length cDNA clones. The cDNA coding sequence is in excellent agreement with the previously determined WTX amino acid sequence, has a high homology with other known weak toxin cDNAs, whereas even higher homology (up to 96%) with several classes of 3-finger toxins was detected in the 59 bp 3'-NTR consensus sequence. A possible function of the highly conserved nucleotide sequence elements is discussed.     

Structural analysis of mouse S-antigen

Mouse S-antigen clones were isolated from a mouse retinal cDNA library using a bovine S-antigen cDNA probe. The largest clone (MSC-242) comprised 1532 bp and contained the entire coding sequence. The nucleotide sequence homology between the mouse and bovine coding regions was 84%, while non-coding regions appeared to be more divergent. The deduced amino acid sequence indicated that the mouse S-antigen had 403 residues and its molecular ratio was 44,930. An overall amino acid sequence similarity of 84% was observed between the mouse and bovine proteins. This degree of similarity dropped to 60% and 47% at the N and the C termini, respectively. The local homology with alpha-transducin observed in the bovine proteins, including the putative phosphoryl and rhodopsin binding sites, was conserved in the mouse as well. There was no overall sequence similarity with other proteins listed in the National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF) protein sequence database. Among the uveitopathogenic sites for experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU), peptides N and M were identical to their bovine counterparts. Peptides 3 and K, however, were more divergent. The short repeats within these peptides were conserved.

Characterization of the cDNA coding for mouse prothrombin and localization of the gene on mouse chromosome 2

A series of overlapping cDNAs coding for mouse prothrombin (coagulation factor II) have been isolated and the composite DNA sequence has been determined. The complete prothrombin cDNA is 1,987 bp in length [excluding the poly(A) tail] and codes for 18 bp of 5' untranslated sequence, an open reading frame coding for 618 amino acids, a stop codon, and a 3' untranslated region of 112 bp followed by a poly(A) tail. The translated amino acid sequence predicts a molecular weight of 66,087, which includes 10 residues of gamma-carboxyglutamic acid. There are five potential N-linked glycosylation sites. Mouse prothrombin is 81.4% and 77.3% identical to the human and bovine proteins, respectively. Comparison of the cDNA coding for mouse prothrombin to the human and bovine cDNAs indicates 79.9% and 76.5% identity, respectively. Amino acid residues important for the structure and function of human prothrombin are conserved in the mouse and bovine proteins. In the adult mouse and rat, prothrombin is primarily synthesized in the liver, where is constitutes 0.07% of total mRNA as determined by solution hybridization analysis. The genetic locus for mouse prothrombin, Cf-2, has been mapped using an interspecies backcross and DNA fragment differences between the two species. The prothrombin locus lies on mouse chromosome 2, 1.8 +/- 1.3 map units proximal to the catalase locus. The gene order in this region is Cen-Acra-Cf-2-Cas-1-A-Tel. This localization extends the proximal boundary of the known region of homology between mouse chromosome 2 and human chromosome 11p from Cas-1 about 2 map units toward the centromere.

Isolation of two cDNA clones from tomato containing two different superoxide dismutase sequences

A cDNA library was derived from the poly(A)⁺ RNA of young tomato leaves. The library was cloned in a gt11 system and screened by synthetic oligonucleotide probes having sequences that match the codes of conserved regions of amino acid sequences of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD) proteins from a wide range of eukaryotic organisms. Two cDNAs were isolated, cloned and sequenced. One of the cDNAs, P31, had a full-size open reading frame of 456 bp with a deduced amino acid sequence having an 80% homology with the deduced amino acid sequence of the cytosolic SOD-2 cDNA of maize. The other cDNA, T10 (extended by T1), had a 651 bp open reading frame that revealed, upon computer translation, 90% homology to the amino acid sequence of mature spinach chloroplast SOD. The 5 end of the reading frame seems to code for a putative transit peptide. This work thus suggests for the first time an amino acid sequence for the transit peptide of chloroplast SOD. Northern hybridizations indicated that each of the P31 and T10 clones hybridized to a blotted poly(A)⁺ RNA species. These two species are differentially expressed in the plant organs: e.g., the species having the T10 sequence was detected in the leaves but not in roots, while the one with the P31 sequence was expressed in both leaves and roots. The cDNA clones P31 and T10 were also hybridized to Southern blots of endonuclease fragmented tomato DNA. The clones hybridized to specific fragments and no cross hybridization between the two clones was revealed under stringent hybridization conditions; the hybridization pattern indicated that, most probably, only one locus is coding for each of the two mRNA species.     

A novel A-isoform-like inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase from chicken erythrocytes exhibits alternative splicing and conservation of intron positions between vertebrates and invertebrates

Based on the partial peptide sequence of inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate 3-kinase purified with 135 000-fold enrichment from chicken erythrocytes, cDNA-fragments were cloned by RT-PCR using degenerate oligonucleotides. Subsequent hybridization screening of an embryonic chicken cDNA library and 5'-RACE yielded a cDNA-contig of 2418 bp, encoding a 452 amino acid protein. The amino acid sequence shows the highest degree of homology with A-isoforms of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (65% identities), whereas homology towards B and C isoforms was lower (57% and 52% amino acid identities respectively). These findings reveal a new tissue-specific pattern of A-isoform expression, a form which so far has only been found in brain and testes.Two overlapping lambda-genomic clones for chicken inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase, isolated by hybridization screening, covered 18 499 bp of genomic sequence. This contig included four exons: three of them were present in all cDNA clones, whereas one was only represented in a single cDNA clone. In addition, the sequence of the latter differed from the other cDNAs by an in-frame deletion of 72 bp within the coding region for the catalytic domain of the enzyme. This divergent cDNA suggests the existence of alternative splice products, at least in embryonic tissue.A comparison of the position of introns, with the respective introns known from the corresponding gene from Caenorhabditis elegans, revealed a high degree of conservation of intron positions between vertebrates and invertebrates. Functional data for the enzyme suggests that the conserved exons represent defined functional protein modules.
