In an approach to study effects of UV light on gene expression in human epidermal keratinocytes, a cDNA library was constructed from poly(A)RNA isolated after UV irradiation from cultured keratinocytes. The cDNA library was differentially screened with labelled cDNA probes synthesized on poly(A)RNA isolated from UV irradiated or nonirradiated keratinocytes. Forty clones were selected and subjected to further analysis, 31 of them are described in this report. Whereas total mRNA synthesis is reduced after UV irradiation or treatment with 4-NQO Northern blot analysis revealed that there is an at least relative increase in the level of mRNAs corresponding to the majority of the isolated cDNA clones. Among these 15 were identified as corresponding to mRNAs for 50K and 56K keratins and for 50K- and 46K-related keratin. In addition, clones were found corresponding to the proteinase inhibitor cystatin A and to the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). Treatment of keratinocytes with the tumor promoter TPA had no effect on the mRNA level for most of the clones except those corresponding to keratins. Our results indicate that in keratinocytes UV irradiation leads to a relative increase in the level of some mRNAs. 相似文献

HL-60 is a human promyelocytic cell line with the capability of differentiating in vitro to give neutrophils, macrophages, or eosinophils. We screened libraries of HL-60 cDNA clones representing different time points during these differentiation processes to isolate clones corresponding to mRNAs whose expression is regulated during terminal differentiation. Upon sequencing this group of regulated clones, one clone encoding the heavy subunit and two clones encoding the light subunit of human ferritin were identified by reference to published amino acid sequences. Southern blot analyses showed that these clones are encoded by distinct multigene families. These clones identify two mRNAs whose ratios vary in a complex manner during both neutrophil and macrophage differentiation. 相似文献

Glucocorticoids induce dramatic biochemical and morphological changes in lymphocytes through an unknown process that requires RNA and protein synthesis. In order to identify genes involved in this response, we previously isolated 11 cDNA clones from the murine WEHI-7TG thymoma cell line that correspond to mRNAs induced by glucocorticoids. We now report the isolation of two new cDNA clones whose gene expression is regulated by glucocorticoids in WEHI-7TG cells. We further characterize the two new cDNA clones, as well as those described previously, by examining the response of each of the corresponding mRNAs to glucocorticoids in murine thymocytes. With the exception of two, all cDNAs correspond to genes that are induced by glucocorticoids in murine thymocytes within 4 h of treatment. We previously identified two of the cDNAs as the mouse VL30 retrovirus-like element and the mouse homolog of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan core protein. We have now identified four additional cDNA clones that correspond to the genes for calmodulin, mitochondrial phosphate carrier protein, immunoglobulin (Ig)-related glycoprotein (GP-70), and the 70 kilodalton autoantigen for Lupus and Graves diseases. Two other cDNA clones represent previously undescribed genes: one shares a high similarity to known sequences for the family of G-protein-coupled receptors and the other to a human placental-specific protein, PP11. Another cDNA appears to contain sequences for an unknown gene and the remnants of a mouse transposon. ETn. The remaining clones represent new, unidentified genes induced by glucocorticoids in murine thymocytes and in the WEHI-7TG cell line. 相似文献

In order to isolate genes that may not be represented in current human brain cDNA libraries, we have sequenced about 20,000 sequence tags of cDNA clones derived from cerebellum and parietal lobe of cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis). We determined the entire cDNA sequence of approximately 700 clones whose 5'-terminal sequences showed no homology to annotated putative genes or expressed sequence tags in current databases of genetic information. From this, 118 clones with sequences encoding novel open reading frames of more than 100 amino acid residues were selected for further analysis. To localize the genes corresponding to these 118 newly identified cDNA clones on human chromosomes, we performed a homology search using the human genome sequence and fluorescent in situ hybridization. In total, 108 of 118 clones were successfully assigned to specific regions of human chromosomes. This result demonstrates that genes expressed in cynomolgus monkey are highly conserved throughout primate evolution, and that virtually all had human homologs. Furthermore, we will be able to discover novel human genes in the human genome using monkey homologs as probes. 相似文献

By screening of a cDNA library made on mRNA isolated from UV-irradiated human epidermal keratinocytes for sequences whose relative concentration increases in the cytoplasm after irradiation, we have isolated 40 cDNA clones (T. Kartasova, B. J. C. Cornelissen, P. Belt, and P. van de Putte, Nucleic Acids Res. 15:5945-5962, 1987). Here we describe two distinct groups of cDNA clones which do not cross-hybridize to each other but nevertheless encode proteins of very similar primary structure. These polypeptides are small (8 to 10 kilodaltons) and exceptionally rich in proline, cysteine, and glutamine and have similar repeating elements not found elsewhere. The new proteins were designated sprI and sprII (small, proline rich). The presence of prolines and cysteines suggests that they may be either structural proteins with a strong secondary structure or metal-binding proteins such as metallothioneins. Southern blot and sequence analyses of the cDNAs indicate that at least the sprII group of clones represents a family of related genes. The nucleotide sequence of both groups seems to be conserved upon evolution. The level of mRNAs corresponding to the two groups of cDNAs is increased in the cytoplasm of human epidermal keratinocytes after both UV irradiation and treatment with 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate. 相似文献

With the use of cDNA probes reverse transcribed from purified glutathione S-transferase mRNA templates, four cDNA clones complementary to transferase mRNAs have been identified and characterized. Two clones, pGTB38 and pGTB34, have cDNA inserts of approximately 950 and 900 base pairs, respectively, and hybridize to a mRNA(s) whose size is approximately 980 nucleotides. In hybrid-select translation experiments, pGTB38 and pGTB34 select mRNAs specific for the Ya and Yc subunits of rat liver glutathione S-transferases. Clone pGTB33, which harbors a truncated cDNA insert, hybrid-selects only the Ya mRNA. All of the clones, pGTB38, pGTB34, and pGTB33, hybrid-select another mRNA which is specific for a polypeptide with an electrophoretic mobility slightly greater than the Ya subunit. The entire nucleotide sequence of the full length clone, pGTB38, has been determined and the complete amino acid sequence of the corresponding polypeptide has been deduced. The mRNA codes for a protein comprising 222 amino acids with Mr = 25,547. We have also identified a cDNA clone complementary to a Yb mRNA of the rat liver glutathione S-transferases. This clone, pGTA/C36, hybrid-selects only Yb mRNA(s) and hybridizes to a mRNA(s) whose size is approximately 1200 nucleotides. Although the Ya, Yb, and Yc mRNAs are elevated coordinately by phenobarbital and 3-methylcholanthrene, the Ya-Yc mRNAs are induced to a much greater extent compared to the Yb mRNA(s). These data suggest that the mRNAs for each transferase isozyme are regulated independently. 相似文献

Six cDNA clones whose corresponding mRNAs accumulate early during the hypersensitive reaction in tobacco leaves have been classified into 2 groups according to their maximum levels of accumulation in an incompatible versus a compatible interaction withPseudomonas solanacearum. We present evidence that, at least in the first stages of the interaction, tobacco cell suspensions retain the ability to respond differentially to compatible and incompatible isolates ofP. solanacearum.In addition, studies on the effect of a fungal elicitor on the accumulation of the mRNAs corresponding to the cDNA clones in cell suspensions indicate that only one group of genes responds to this treatment. 相似文献

Molecular cloning of mRNA sequences transiently induced during rat liver regeneration 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In order to isolate genes which are induced during liver regeneration, we have constructed a cDNA library from 16-h-regenerating liver poly(A)+ RNA. By computer analysis of autoradiograms produced by differential plaque hybridization with cDNA from normal or 16-h-regenerating liver, we have isolated several recombinant clones representing sequences transiently increased during liver regeneration. Three of these were further characterized: the level of the corresponding mRNAs increase rapidly after partial hepatectomy, before the onset of DNA synthesis. Two clones were identified as fibrinogen clones. It is speculated that alpha-fibrinogen may be involved in the growth process, or in its regulation. 相似文献

A lambda gt11 cDNA library was constructed using poly(A)+ mRNA from thyrotropin (TSH)-stimulated Fisher rat thyroid (FRTL5) cells. The library was screened for nonthyroglobulin cDNA sequences by differential plaque filter hybridization using single-stranded cDNA probes synthesized from mRNA prepared from quiescent and TSH-stimulated FRTL5 cells. Thyroglobulin cDNA-containing recombinants in the library were avoided by prehybridizing the TSH probe to excess thyroglobulin cDNA. Of 48,000 clones screened, 60 were chosen as representing mRNA species whose abundance was increased in TSH-stimulated versus quiescent cultures. Southern blot analysis of 9 clones confirmed that the TSH-cDNA probe hybridized to a greater extent to the cDNA inserts than did the control probe. cDNA insert sizes varied between 0.3 kilobase (kb) and 1.0 kb. Northern slot blot analysis using as probes the cDNA of four of these clones (FC4, FC26, FC29, and FC43) demonstrated that TSH stimulation of FRTL5 cells increased the steady state levels of the respective mRNA species by 4-12-fold. For all 4 clones, increases in mRNA levels were apparent within approximately 1 h and were maximal after 14-18 h of TSH stimulation. Determination of the partial nucleotide sequence of these 4 clones confirmed that none was thyroglobulin, thyroid peroxidase, or any other gene previously reported to be stimulated by TSH. Three of the clones bore no homology to any known nucleotide sequence, but FC26 was 85% homologous with human ferritin H. Northern blot analysis using the FC26 cDNA insert as a probe confirmed hybridization to an mRNA species of 1 kb, the known size of ferritin H mRNA. In summary, using the technique of differential plaque filter hybridization, we have identified 4 new genes whose mRNA levels are increased by TSH stimulation of thyroid cells. One of these genes is homologous to human ferritin H. 相似文献

From a cDNA clone bank prepared from cadmium-treated HeLa cells, we isolated clones representing mRNAs whose concentration is increased after cadmium induction. Several metallothionein cDNA clones were isolated by cross-hybridization to mouse metallothionein-I cDNA. The nucleotide sequence of one of these clones, containing a nearly full-length cDNA copy of human metallothionein-II mRNA, was determined. The homology between the human and mouse metallothionein sequences is strictly limited to the coding region of the mRNA. Codon usage in metallothionein mRNA is not random. Seventy-nine percent of the codons have G or C residues at the third position, resulting in a GC-rich sequence. 相似文献

Molecular cloning and characterization of cDNA for androgen-repressible rat liver protein, SMP-2 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
B Chatterjee D Majumdar O Ozbilen C V Murty A K Roy 《The Journal of biological chemistry》1987,262(2):822-825
SMP-2 is a rat liver protein whose synthesis is influenced by both androgens and aging. The steady-state level of its mRNA is repressed by the androgen. Compared to the adult male, SMP-2 mRNA is found in higher amounts in the prepubertal and senescent male rat livers which show relative androgen insensitivity. A cDNA library in the plasmid pBR322 was constructed from the female rat liver which contains a high level of SMP-2 mRNAs. Recombinant plasmids were screened by differential colony hybridization to 32P-labeled single-stranded cDNAs from adult female and adult male hepatic poly(A)+ RNAs. From a total of 3500 recombinant clones, 11 highly female specific clones were identified. From these female specific colonies the SMP-2 cDNA-containing plasmid (pSP11) was identified by its ability to select an mRNA species whose translation product is immunochemically and electrophoretically indistinguishable from SMP-2. This insert represents a 571-base pair portion of the SMP-2 cDNA. Rescreening of the library at a high colony density using the 32P-labeled cDNA insert of pSP11 identified several positive clones with larger inserts. Hybrid-selected mRNA translation again confirmed these clones to carry SMP-2 cDNA sequences. The plasmid pSP4a containing a 1040-base pair cDNA insert of SMP-2 was characterized by DNA sequence analysis. The size of the cDNA insert of pSP4a is close to the estimated size of the SMP-2 mRNA. The cDNA sequence provides an open reading frame of 282 amino acid residues. A comparison of the translated amino acid sequence with the protein sequences of NBRF-PIR, PSQNEW, and LOSALA data bases did not establish any sequence homology with known proteins. Northern blot analysis using the 32P-labeled cDNA insert of pSP4a confirms the androgenic repression of the SMP-2 mRNA. 相似文献

The ecdysone-inducible polypeptides (EIPs) 28, 29 and 40 were identified previously as polypeptides whose synthesis is stimulated early in the ecdysone response of Drosophila Kc cells. We have now shown, using two-dimensional gels, that each of these EIPs consists of three species differing in pI, and all stimulated by ecdysone. Translations and hybrid-arrested translations indicated that the poly(A)+ EIP mRNAs increase ˜10-fold in abundance during the first 4 h of ecdysone treatment. By a differential screen of a cDNA library we have identified cDNA clones corresponding to all three EIPs. Two kinds of clones were isolated: one hybridizes to the EIP 40 mRNA(s); the second hybridizes to the mRNA(s) encoding all the EIPs 28 and 29. The EIP 28/29 and EIP 40 loci detected by these clones are each present at single sites on the polytene chromosomes and each is at or in the vicinity of an ecdysone-regulated puff. 相似文献

We have isolated cDNA clones coding for apolipoprotein E (apoE) from a cDNA library prepared from adult human liver mRNA. Mixtures of 128 different oligonucleotides, 17 residues long were synthesised to be complementary to regions of the mRNA corresponding to amino acids 1-6 and 151-156. Five independent apoE clones were selected by direct screening of 5000 recombinants with the two oligonucleotide mixtures. Two overlapping clones contain the 3'-untranslated sequence, the entire coding sequence and an additional 30 bases 5' to the amino terminus of the mature protein. The DNA sequence has been determined spanning the known sites of amino acid substitutions which account for the observed protein polymorphism of apoE. Using the clones as probes in Northern blot analysis of total human liver and kidney RNAs and leucocyte poly(A)+ RNA we have detected a single species of mRNA in liver and kidney of 1.2 kb and two larger species in leucocyte RNA. The level of expression of the mRNA in kidney is approximately 10% of that in liver while the level of apoE RNA sequences in the leucocytes is less than 1% of that in the liver. 相似文献
