A human cDNA coding sequence for a 3-methyladenine-DNA glycosylase was expressed in Escherichia coli. In addition to the full-length 3-methyladenine-DNA glycosylase coding sequence, two other sequences (resulting from differential RNA splicing and the truncated anpg cDNA) derived from that sequence were also expressed. All three proteins were purified to physical homogeneity and their N-terminal amino acid sequences are identical to those predicted by the nucleic acid sequences. The full-length protein has 293 amino acids coding for a protein with a molecular mass of 32 kDa. Polyclonal antibodies against one of the proteins react with the other two proteins, and a murine 3-methyladenine-DNA glycosylase, but not with several other E. coli DNA repair proteins. All three proteins excise 3-methyl-adenine, 7-methylguanine, and 3-methylguanine as well as ethylated bases from DNA. The activities of the proteins with respect to ionic strength (optimum 100 mM KCl), pH (optimum 7.6), and kinetics for 3-methyladenine and 7-methylguanine excision (average values: 3-methyladenine: Km 9 nM and kcat 10 min-1, 7-methylguanine: Km 29 nM and kcat 0.38 min-1) are comparable. In contrast to these results, however, the thermal stability of the full-length and splicing variant proteins at 50 degrees C is less than that of the truncated protein.  相似文献

The analysis of a chicken myosin heavy chain cDNA clone   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A cDNA library has been constructed in the plasmid pBR322 using a large size class of RNA derived from chicken embryonic leg muscle as the template material. A clone containing a 2350-base pair insert was selected and identified as coding for the myosin heavy chain sequence, based upon its ability to hybridize to genomic myosin heavy chain clones, and by direct nucleotide sequencing. Cross-hybridization experiments with myosin heavy chain genomic clones, and mRNAs derived from different muscle types were used to explore the heterogeneity of the various myosin heavy chain isoforms at the level of the coding sequences. Although extensive sequence homology with the other isoforms was observed, a fast white isoform-specific subclone was constructed, and used to demonstrate that different genes code for the adult and embryonic fast white myosin heavy chain proteins.  相似文献

A truncated cDNA clone encoding Tetrahymena thermophila histone H2A2 was isolated using synthetic degenerate oligonucleotide probes derived from H2A protein sequences of Tetrahymena pyriformis. The cDNA clone was used as a homologous probe to isolate a truncated genomic clone encoding H2A1. The remaining regions of the genes for H2A1 (HTA1) and H2A2 (HTA2) were then isolated using inverse PCR on circularized genomic DNA fragments. These partial clones were assembled into intact HTA1 and HTA2 clones. Nucleotide sequences of the two genes were highly homologous within the coding region but not in the noncoding regions. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences with protein sequences of T. pyriformis H2As showed only two and three differences respectively, in a total of 137 amino acids for H2A1, and 132 amino acids for H2A2, indicating the two genes arose before the divergence of these two species. The HTA2 gene contains a TAA triplet within the coding region, encoding a glutamine residue. In contrast with the T. thermophila HHO and HTA3 genes, no introns were identified within the two genes. The 5'- and 3'-ends of the histone H2A mRNAs; were determined by RNase protection and by PCR mapping using RACE and RLM-RACE methods. Both genes encode polyadenylated mRNAs and are highly expressed in vegetatively growing cells but only weakly expressed in starved cultures. With the inclusion of these two genes, T. thermophila is the first organism whose entire complement of known core and linker histones, including replication-dependent and basal variants, has been cloned and sequenced.  相似文献

Double-stranded complementary DNA (cDNA) sequences were prepared from day-old chick lens total polysomal RNA and inserted into the unique PstI restriction site of the plasmid pBR322. Colonies containing sequences complementary to abundant lens poly(A)-containing RNA sequences were identified by using lens 32P-labelled cDNA. Some of these clones have been characterized as containing delta-crystallin mRNA coding sequences by genomic DNA blot hybridization and RNA blot hybridizations. Hybridization of labelled DNA from such clones to RNA blots detected four size classes of delta-crystallin RNA sequences, although Southern blots indicated that there are probably only two delta-crystallin genes.  相似文献

Gliadins, the major wheat seed storage proteins, are encoded by a multigene family. Northern blot analysis shows that gliadin genes are transcribed in endosperm tissue into two classes of poly(A)+ mRNA, 1400 bases (class I) and 1600 bases (class II) in length. Using poly(A)+ RNA from developing wheat endosperm we constructed a cDNA library from which a number of clones coding for alpha/beta and gamma gliadins were identified by hybrid-selected mRNA translation and DNA sequencing. These cDNA clones were used as probes for the isolation of genomic gliadin clones from a wheat genomic library. One such genomic clone was characterized in detail and its DNA sequence determined. It contains a gene for a 33-kd alpha/beta gliadin protein (a 20 amino acid signal peptide and a 266 amino acid mature protein) which is very rich in glutamine (33.8%) and proline (15.4%). The gene sequence does not contain introns. A typical eukaryotic promoter sequence is present at -104 (relative to the translation initiation codon) and there are two normal polyadenylation signals 77 and 134 bases downstream from the translation termination codon. The coding sequence contains some internal sequence repetition, and is highly homologous to several alpha/beta gliadin cDNA clones. Homology to a gamma-gliadin cDNA clone is low, and there is no homology with known glutenin or zein cDNA sequences.  相似文献

A large collection of full-length cDNAs is essential for the correct annotation of genomic sequences and for the functional analysis of genes and their products. We obtained a total of 39 936 soybean cDNA clones (GMFL01 and GMFL02 clone sets) in a full-length-enriched cDNA library which was constructed from soybean plants that were grown under various developmental and environmental conditions. Sequencing from 5′ and 3′ ends of the clones generated 68 661 expressed sequence tags (ESTs). The EST sequences were clustered into 22 674 scaffolds involving 2580 full-length sequences. In addition, we sequenced 4712 full-length cDNAs. After removing overlaps, we obtained 6570 new full-length sequences of soybean cDNAs so far. Our data indicated that 87.7% of the soybean cDNA clones contain complete coding sequences in addition to 5′- and 3′-untranslated regions. All of the obtained data confirmed that our collection of soybean full-length cDNAs covers a wide variety of genes. Comparative analysis between the derived sequences from soybean and Arabidopsis, rice or other legumes data revealed that some specific genes were involved in our collection and a large part of them could be annotated to unknown functions. A large set of soybean full-length cDNA clones reported in this study will serve as a useful resource for gene discovery from soybean and will also aid a precise annotation of the soybean genome.Key words: EST, full-length cDNA, functional annotation, legume, soybean  相似文献

Complementary DNAs to rat ventral prostate poly(A) RNA were cloned into pBR322 by the "dG-dC tailing" procedure. Clones containing cDNAs to the mRNAs coding for each of the three subunits of a major secretory protein (prostatein) were identified by hybrid-arrested translation. A 457-nucleotide base pair cDNA (E45) and a portion of a 365-base pair cDNA (E85) were analyzed to determine the composite complete DNA coding sequence for the Mr = 14,000 (C3) subunit of prostatein. A sequence of 12-nucleotide bases (TTTGCTGCTATG) in the signal peptide of C3 was noted to be homologous to signal peptide nucleotide sequences reported in cDNAs coding for the other two prostatein subunits, Mr = 6,000 (C1) and 10,000 (C2). Complementary DNA coding for the C3 subunit was used as a hybridization probe to screen an EcoRI rat genomic DNA library. Two unique 12-kilobase genomic clones, each containing mRNA coding sequences within 2.5-3-kilobase fragments, were identified by restriction enzyme mapping and Southern blot analysis. Restriction enzyme sites within the coding regions of both genes were analogous to the cDNA. Differences in restriction enzyme sites in regions of intervening sequences and flanking DNA established the uniqueness of the two genes. It is suggested that both genes may be transcribed in vivo.  相似文献
