We have screened expression libraries for mammalian cDNAs capable of suppressing defects in ras1- Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Both the RAP1A and RAP1B genes were identified in this manner. They suppress defects in cell morphology and sporulation, although not conjugation. In contrast, RAP genes do not suppress phenotypes in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that are deficient in RAS. Indeed, expression of RAP1A appears to antagonize the activated S. cerevisiae RAS2val19 gene. These results indicate that RAP proteins can interact with RAS targets, sometimes productively, sometimes nonproductively. 相似文献

Four human homeo box-containing cDNAs isolated from mRNA of an SV40-transformed human fibroblast cell line have been regionally localized on the human gene map. One cDNA clone, c10, was found to be nearly identical to the previously mapped Hox-2.1 gene at 17q21. A second cDNA clone, c1, which is 87% homologous to Hox-2.2 at the nucleotide level but is distinct from Hox-2.1 and Hox-2.2, also maps to this region of human chromosome 17 and is probably another member of the Hox-2 cluster of homeo box-containing genes. The third cDNA clone, c8, in which the homeo box is approximately 84% homologous to the mouse Hox-1.1 homeo box region on mouse chromosome 6, maps to chromosome region 12q12----12q13, a region that is involved in chromosome abnormalities in human seminomas and teratomas. The fourth cDNA clone, c13, whose homeo box is approximately 73% homologous to the Hox-2.2 homeo box sequence, is located at chromosome region 2q31----q37. The human homeo box-containing cluster of genes at chromosome region 17q21 is the human cognate of the mouse homeo box-containing gene cluster on mouse chromosome 11. Other mouse homeo box-containing genes of the Antennapedia class (class I) map to mouse chromosomes 6 (Hox-1, proximal to the IgK locus) and 15 (Hox-3). A mouse gene, En-1, with an engrailed-like homeo box (class II) and flanking region maps to mouse chromosome 1 (near the dominant hemimelia gene). Neither of the class I homeo box-containing genes--c8 and c13--maps to a region of obvious homology to chromosomal positions of the presently known mouse homeo box-containing genes. 相似文献

Two novel splice variants of CDK5RAP1, named CDK5RAP1_v3 and CDK5RAP1_v4, were isolated through the large-scale sequencing analysis of a human fetal brain cDNA library. The CDK5RAP1_v3 and CDK5RAP1_v4 cDNAs are 1923bp and 1792bp in length, respectively. Sequence analysis revealed that CDK5RAP1_v4 lacked 1 exon, which was present in CDK5RAP1_v3, with the result that these cDNAs encoded different putative proteins. The deduced proteins were 574 amino acids (designated as CDK5RAP1_v3) and 426 amino acids (CDK5RAP1_v4) in length, and shared the 420 N-terminal amino acids. RT-PCR analysis showed that human CDK5RAP1_v3 was widely expressed in human tissues. The expression level of CDK5RAP1_v3 was relatively high in placenta and lung, whereas low levels of expression were detected in heart, brain, liver, skeletal muscle, pancreas, spleen, thymus, small intestine and peripheral blood leukocytes. In contrast, human CDK5RAP1_v4 was mainly expressed in brain, placenta and testis. 相似文献

The assignment of the gene encoding the alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor (A2MR), which was first described as the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein, was confirmed by nonisotopic and isotopic in situ hybridizations on normal human metaphases to the region 12q13-q14. The same human cDNA, which has 95% sequence identity with the mouse A2mr, was hybridized to metaphases containing the Robertsonian translocation Rb(6;15)1Ald. The mouse A2mr gene was assigned to chromosome 15 in the region B2-D1. This locus and other loci on mouse chromosome 15 have been shown to be homologous with loci on human chromosome 12q. 相似文献

The human oncogene INT1 has been mapped to chromosome band 12q13 by in situ hybridization. The precise localization of this gene is of particular interest, since the region 12q13----q14 has been reported to be involved in chromosomal rearrangements in lipomas, myxoid liposarcomas, pleomorphic adenomas, and myomas. The involvement of this region in both benign and malignant tumors suggests a common pathogenetic pathway in which changes affecting INT1 may be an important step. 相似文献

A congenitally abnormal female baby was found to have the karyotype 46, XX, +der (16) t (13; 16) (q12;q12) mat. GTG, QFQ, CBG, THA and Ag-NOR banding techniques allowed the identification of the abnormal chromosomes in the proposita and in the translocation carriers through three generations. Duplication 16q resulted from 3:1 segregation in the carrier mother. The hypothesis of a specific meiotic segregation for this translocation is discussed. The phenotypic effects of proximal 16q duplications are analysed together with other four reported cases, which have similar duplicated segment and no other relevant chromosomal abnormality. 相似文献

Phosphorylase kinase (PHK), the enzyme that activates glycogen phosphorylases in muscle, liver, and other tissues, is composed of four different subunits. Recently isolated rabbit muscle cDNAs for the larger two subunits, alpha and beta, have been used to map the location of their cognate sequences on human chromosomes. Southern blot analysis of rodent x human somatic cell hybrid panels, as well as in situ chromosomal hybridization, have provided evidence of single sites for both genes. The alpha subunit gene (PHKA) is located on the proximal long arm of the X chromosome in region Xq12-q13 near the locus for phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK1). X-linked mutations leading to PHK deficiency, known to exist in humans and mice, are likely to involve this locus. This hypothesis is consistent with the proximity of the Phk and Pgk-1 loci on the mouse X chromosome. In contrast, the beta subunit gene (PHKB) was found to be autosomal and was mapped to chromosome 16, region q12-q13 on the proximal long arm. Several different autosomally inherited forms of PHK deficiency for which the PHKB could be a candidate gene have been described in humans and rats. 相似文献

The gene for autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (RP12) with preserved para-arteriolar retinal pigment epithelium was previously mapped close to the F13B gene in region 1q31-->q32.1. A 4-Mb yeast artificial chromosome contig spanning this interval was constructed to facilitate cloning of the RP12 gene. The contig comprises 25 sequence-tagged sites, polymorphic markers, and single-copy probes, including five newly obtained probes. The contig orders the F13B and HF1 genes, as well as five expressed sequence tags, with respect to the integrated genetic map of this region. Homozygosity mapping resulted in refinement of the candidate gene locus for RP12 to a 1. 3-cM region. Currently, approximately 1 Mb of the contig is represented in P1-derived artificial chromosome (PAC) clones. Direct screening of a cDNA library derived from neural retina with PACs resulted in identification of the human elongation factor 1alpha pseudogene (EEF1AL11) and a human ribosomal protein L30 pseudogene (RPL30). A physical and genetic map covering the entire RP12 candidate gene region was constructed. 相似文献

Relative phylogenetic divergence of the members of the Pongidae family has been based on genetic evidence. The recent isolation
of subtelomeric probes specific for human (HSA) chromosomes 1q, 11p, 13q, and 16q has prompted us to cross hybridize these
to the chromosomes of the chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes, PTR), gorilla (Gorilla gorilla, GGO), and orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus,
PPY) to search for their equivalent locations in the great apes. Hybridization signals to the 1q subtelomeric DNA sequence
probe were observed at the termini of human (HSA) 1q, PTR 1q, GGO 1q, PPY 1q, while the fluorescent signals to the 11p subtelomeric
DNA sequence probe were observed at the termini of HSA 11p, PTR 9p, GGO 9p, and PPY 8p. Fluorescent signals to the 13q subtelomeric
DNA sequence probe were observed at the termini of HSA 13q, PTR 14q, GGO 14q, and PPY 14q, and positive signals to the 16p
subtelomeric DNA sequence probe were observed at the termini of HSA 16q, PTR 18q, GGO 17q, and PPY 19q. These findings apparently
suggest sequence homology of these DNA families in the ape chromosomes. Obviously, analogous subtelomeric sequences exist
in apes' chromosomes that apparently have been conserved through the course of differentiation of the hominoid species.

Summary A 36-month-old boy presented with short stature, short neck, shield-shaped chest, and mental retardation. Chromosome analysis showed trisomy for the short arm and the proximal portion of the long arm of chromosome 13 [47,XY,+der(13),t(13;22)(q12;q13)mat]. The patient's mother has a balanced translocation between the long arms of chromosomes 13 and 22 [46,XX,t(13;22)(q12;q13)]. The patient's neutrophils showed an elevated number of nuclear projections and his fetal hemoglobin level was undetectable. 相似文献

We have isolated previously cDNAs encoding two related human lysosomal membrane glycoproteins, h-lamp-1 and h-lamp-2 (Fukuda, M., Viitala, J., Matteson, J., and Carlsson, S.R. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 18920-18928). In the present study, we have determined the chromosomal localization of genes for h-lamp-1 and h-lamp-2. By using the method of in situ hybridization, we have localized the gene for h-lamp-1 to chromosome 13q34 and its related gene to chromosome 12p133. The hybridization of h-lamp-1 cDNA to chromosome 12p133 was observed even when probes representing different portions of h-lamp-1 cDNA were used. On ther other hand, the gene for h-lamp-2 were localized to Xq24-25 but no cross-hybridization to chromosome 12p133 was observed even though h-lamp-1 and h-lamp-2 are highly related. These results clearly indicate that human lamp-1 and lamp-2 are coded by separate genes on different chromosomes. The present results support our hypothesis that lamp-1 and lamp-2 diverged early in evolution and they have distinct functions which emerged as soon as eukaryotic cells acquired lysosomes as subcellular compartments. 相似文献

Mouse Ocp2-rs2 maps to chromosome 11 and encodes an 18.6 kDa peptide abundantly expressed in the organ of Corti. We show that sequences similar to murine Ocp2-rs2 are found on human chromosomes 4p16.2-4p14, 5p13-5q35.2, 7pter-q22, 10 and 12p13-12qter as revealed by Southern blot analyses of human/rodent somatic cell hybrids. A fetal human inner ear cDNA library was screened with a cloned 254 bp PCR product of murine Ocp2-rs2. One of two human cDNA clones (CM1) was sequenced from the 5′ end that begins with murine Ocp2-rs2 codon 14 through the stop codon and 258 nucleotides of 3′-UTR and was found to have the identical deduced amino acid sequence to Ocp2-rs2. Based on the sequence in the 3′-UTR of CM1, a PCR primer pair was synthesized and used to confirm that a human homologue of Ocp2-rs2, designated OCP2 and expressed in the developing human inner ear, is localized to 5q22-5q35.2. Other OCP2-like sequences located on chromosomes 4p16.2-4p14, 7pter-q22 and 12p13-12qter (but not the chromosome 10 OCP2-like sequence) will PCR amplify the expected size product at a lower annealing temperature using the OCP2 3′-UTR PCR primers indicating that there may be a human OCP2 gene family. 相似文献

To further understand the biological significance of amplifications for glioma development and recurrencies, we characterized amplicon frequency and size in low-grade glioma and amplicon stability in vivo in recurring glioblastoma. We developed a 12q13-21 amplicon-specific genomic microarray and a bioinformatics amplification prediction tool to analyze amplicon frequency, size, and maintenance in 40 glioma samples including 16 glioblastoma, 10 anaplastic astrocytoma, 7 astrocytoma WHO grade 2, and 7 pilocytic astrocytoma. Whereas previous studies reported two amplified subregions, we found a more complex situation with many amplified subregions. Analyzing 40 glioma, we found that all analyzed glioblastoma and the majority of pilocytic astrocytoma, grade 2 astrocytoma, and anaplastic astrocytoma showed at least one amplified subregion, indicating a much higher amplification frequency than previously suggested. Amplifications in low-grade glioma were smaller in size and displayed clearly different distribution patterns than amplifications in glioblastoma. One glioblastoma and its recurrencies revealed an amplified subregion of 5 Mb that was stable for 6 years. Expression analysis of the amplified region revealed 10 overexpressed genes (i.e., KUB3, CTDSP2, CDK4, OS-9, DCTN2, RAB3IP, FRS2, GAS41, MDM2, and RAP1B) that were consistently overexpressed in all cases that carried this amplification. Our data indicate that amplifications on 12q13-21 (a) are more frequent than previously thought and present in low-grade tumors and (b) are maintained as extended regions over long periods of time. 相似文献

The eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF-5A) has been identified as an essential cofactor for the HIV-1 trans-activator protein Rev. Rev plays a key role in the complex regulation of HIV-1 gene expression and thereby in the generation of infectious virus particles. Expression of eIF-5A is vital for Rev function, and inhibition of this interaction leads to a block of the viral replication cycle. In humans, four different eIF-5A genes have been identified. One codes for the eIF-5A protein and the other three are pseudogenes. Using a panel of somatic rodent—human cell hybrids in combination with fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis, we show that the four genes map to threedifferent chromosomes. The coding eIF-5A gene (EIF5A) maps to 17p12–p13, and the three pseudogenes EIF5AP1, EIF5AP2, and EIF5AP3 map to 10q23.3, 17q25, and 19q13.2, respectively. This is the first localization report for a eukaryotic cofactor for a regulatory HIV-1 protein. 相似文献

In addition to being an excellent model system for studying vertebrate development, the zebrafish has become a great tool for gene discovery by mutational analysis. The recent availability of the zebrafish EST database and radiation hybrid mapping panels has dramatically expanded the framework for genomic research in this species. Developing comparative maps of the zebrafish and human genomes is of particular importance for zebrafish mutagenesis studies in which human orthologs are sought for zebrafish genes. However, only partial cDNA sequences are determined routinely for mapped ESTs, leaving the identity of the EST in question. It previously had been reported that zebrafish linkage group 7 shares conserved synteny with human chromosome 11q13. In an effort to further define this relationship, five full-length zebrafish cDNAs, fth1, slc3a2, prkri, cd81, and pc, as well as one putative human gene, DBX were identified and their map positions ascertained. These six genes, along with men1, fgf3 and cycd1 define two regions of conserved synteny between linkage group 7 and 11q13. 相似文献

The small G protein RAP1 and the kinase B-RAF have been proposed to link elevations of cAMP to activation of ERK/mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. In order to delineate signaling pathways that link receptor-generated cAMP to the activation of MAP kinase, the human A(2A)-adenosine receptor, a prototypical G(s)-coupled receptor, was heterologously expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells (referred as CHO-A(2A) cells). In CHO-A(2A) cells, the stimulation of the A(2A)-receptor resulted in an activation of RAP1 and formation of RAP1-B-RAF complexes. However, overexpression of a RAP1 GTPase-activating protein (RAP1GAP), which efficiently clamped cellular RAP1 in the inactive GDP-bound form, did not affect A(2A)-agonist-mediated MAP kinase stimulation. In contrast, the inhibitor of protein kinase A H89 efficiently suppressed A(2A)-agonist-mediated MAP kinase stimulation. Neither dynamin-dependent receptor internalization nor receptor-promoted shedding of matrix-bound growth factors accounted for A(2A)-receptor-dependent MAP kinase activation. PP1, an inhibitor of SRC family kinases, blunted both the A(2A)-receptor- and the forskolin-induced MAP kinase stimulation (IC(50) = 50 nm); this was also seen in PC12 cells, which express the A(2A)-receptor endogenously, and in NIH3T3 fibroblasts, in which cAMP causes MAP kinase stimulation. In the corresponding murine fibroblast cell line SYF, which lacks the ubiquitously expressed SRC family kinases SRC, YES, and FYN, forskolin barely stimulated MAP kinase; this reduction was reversed in cells in which c-SRC had been reintroduced. These findings show that activation of MAP kinase by cAMP requires a SRC family kinase that lies downstream of protein kinase A. A role for RAP1, as documented for the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor, is apparently contingent on receptor endocytosis. 相似文献

RAP1 (RAS proximate 1), a small GTP-binding protein of the RAS superfamily, is a putative oncogene that is highly expressed in several malignant cell lines and types of cancers, including some types of squamous cell carcinoma. However, the participation of RAP1 in cervical carcinogenesis is unknown. We conducted a cross-sectional study of paraffin-embedded cervical biopsies to determine the association of RAP1 with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Standard and quantitative immunohistochemistry assessment of RAP1 expression in fixed tissue was performed on 183 paraffin-embedded cervical biopsies that were classified as normal or non-dysplastic mucosa (NDM) (n = 33); CIN grade 1 (n = 84) and CIN grade 2/3 (n = 66). A gradual increase in RAP1 expression in NDM < CIN 1 < CIN 2/3 (p<0.001) specimens was observed and was in agreement with the histopathologic diagnosis. A progressive increase in the RAP1 expression levels increased the risk of CIN 1 [odds ratio (OR) = 3.50; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.30-10.64] 3.5 fold and the risk of CIN 2/3 (OR = 19.86, 95% CI 6.40-70.79) nearly 20 fold when compared to NDM. In addition, stereotype ordinal regression analysis showed that this progressive increase in RAP1 expression more strongly impacted CIN 2/3 than CIN 1. Our findings suggest that RAP1 may be a useful biomarker for the diagnosis of CIN. 相似文献

The cellular signal transduction pathways by which C3G, a RAS family guanine nucleotide exchange factor, mediates v-crk transformation are not well understood. Here we report the identification of Drosophila C3G, which, like its human cognate, specifically binds to CRK but not DRK/GRB2 adaptor molecules. During Drosophila development, constitutive membrane binding of C3G, which also occurs during v-crk transformation, results in cell fate changes and overproliferation, mimicking overactivity of the RAS-MAPK pathway. The effects of C3G overactivity can be suppressed by reducing the gene dose of components of the RAS-MAPK pathway and of RAP1. These findings provide the first in vivo evidence that membrane localization of C3G can trigger activation of RAP1 and RAS resulting in the activation of MAPK, one of the hallmarks of v-crk transformation previously thought to be mediated through activation of SOS. 相似文献
