The human CCG1 gene complements tsBN462, a temperature-sensitive G1 mutant of the BHK21 cell line. The previously cloned cDNA turned out to be a truncated form of the actual CCG1 cDNA. The newly cloned CCG1 cDNA was 6.0 kb and encoded a protein with a molecular mass of 210 kDa. Using an antibody to a predicted peptide from the CCG1 protein, a protein with a molecular mass of over 200 kDa was identified in human, monkey, and hamster cell lines. In the newly defined C-terminal region, an acidic domain was found. It contained four consensus target sequences for casein kinase II and was phosphorylated by this enzyme in vitro. However, this C-terminal region was not required to complement tsBN462 mutation since the region encoding the C-terminal part was frequently missing in complemented clones derived by DNA-mediated gene transfer. CCG1 contains a sequence similar to the putative DNA-binding domain of HMG1 in addition to the previously detected amino acid sequences common in nuclear proteins, such as a proline cluster and a nuclear translocation signal. Consistent with these predictions, CCG1 was present in nuclei, possessed DNA-binding activity, and was eluted with similar concentrations of salt, 0.3 to 0.4 M NaCl either from isolated nuclei or from a DNA-cellulose column. 相似文献

At the nonpermissive temperature, premature chromosome condensation (PCC) occurs in tsBN2 cells derived from the BHK cell line, which can be converted to the Ts+ phenotype by the human RCC1 gene. To prove that the RCC1 gene is the mutant gene in tsBN2 cells, which have RCC1 mRNA and protein of the same sizes as those of BHK cells, RCC1 cDNAs were isolated from BHK and tsBN2 cells and sequenced to search for mutations. The hamster (BHK) RCC1 cDNA encodes a protein of 421 amino acids homologous to the human RCC1 protein. In a comparison of the base sequences of BHK and BN2 RCC1 cDNAs, a single base change, cytosine to thymine (serine to phenylalanine), was found in the 256th codon of BN2 RCC1 cDNA. The same transition was verified in the RCC1 genomic DNA by the polymerase chain reaction method. BHK RCC1 cDNA, but not tsBN2 RCC1 cDNA, complemented the tsBN2 mutation, although both have the same amino acid sequence except for one amino acid at the 256th codon. This amino acid change, serine to phenylalanine, was estimated to cause a profound structural change in the RCC1 protein. 相似文献

The tsBN462 cell line, a temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant isolated from the hamster cell line, BHK21/13, cannot progress into S phase at 39.5 degrees C, following the release from isoleucine deprivation. The mutant cells were transfected with high molecular weight (HMW) DNA from human KB cells, and several human DNA bands were found to be conserved through three cycles of ts+ transformation. Conserved human DNA was isolated from the cosmid library of the secondary ts+ transformant (K-1-1), using 32P-labelled total human DNA as a probe. The isolated human DNA covers about 70 kb of human DNA flanked with hamster DNA, and originates from the human X chromosome. The middle part (56 kb) of the isolated human DNA was conserved through the primary, secondary and tertiary ts+ transformation, without gross rearrangement. 相似文献

The tsBN7 cell line, one of the mutant lines temperature sensitive for growth which have been isolated from the BHK21 cell line, was found to die by apoptosis following a shift to the nonpermissive temperature. The induced apoptosis was inhibited by a protein synthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide, but not by the bcl-2-encoded protein. By DNA-mediated gene transfer, we cloned a cDNA that complements the tsBN7 mutation. It encodes a novel hydrophobic protein, designated DAD1, which is well conserved (100% identical amino acids between humans and hamsters). By comparing the base sequences of the parental BHK21 and tsBN7 DAD1 cDNAs, we found that the DAD1-encoding gene is mutated in tsBN7 cells. The DAD1 protein disappeared in tsBN7 cells following a shift to the nonpermissive temperature, suggesting that loss of the DAD1 protein triggers apoptosis. 相似文献

We have cloned the human genomic DNA and the corresponding cDNA for the gene which complements the mutation of tsBN51, a temperature-sensitive (Ts) cell cycle mutant of BHK cells which is blocked in G1 at the nonpermissive temperature. After transfecting human DNA into TsBN51 cells and selecting for growth at 39.5 degrees C, Ts+ transformants were identified by their content of human AluI repetitive DNA sequences. Following two additional rounds of transfection, a genomic library was constructed from a tertiary Ts+ transformant and a recombinant phage containing the complementing gene isolated by screening for human AluI sequences. A genomic probe from this clone recognized a 2-kilobase mRNA in human and tertiary transformant cell lines, and this probe was used to isolate a biologically active cDNA from the Okayama-Berg cDNA expression library. Sequencing of this cDNA revealed a single open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 395 amino acids. The deduced BN51 gene product has a high proportion of acidic and basic amino acids which are clustered in four hydrophilic domains spaced at 60- to 80-amino-acid intervals. These domains have strong sequence homology to each other. Thus, the tsBN51 protein consists of periodic repetitive clusters of acidic and basic amino acids. 相似文献

The tsBN2 cell line, a temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant of baby hamster kidney cell line BHK21/13, seems to possess a mutation in the gene that controls initiation of chromosome condensation. At the nonpermissive temperature (39.5 degrees C), the chromatin of tsBN2 cells is prematurely condensed, and the cells die. Using tsBN2 cells as a recipient of DNA-mediated gene transfer, we investigated a human gene that is responsible for regulation of chromosome condensation and cell proliferation. We found that the human gene complementing the tsBN2 mutation resides in the area of the 40- to 50-kilobase HindIII fragment, derived from HeLa cells. Based on this finding, we initiated cloning of a human gene complementing the tsBN2 mutation. From lambda and cosmid libraries carrying partial digests of DNA from the secondary transformants, the 41.8-kilobase HindIII fragment containing the human DNA was isolated. The cloned human DNA was conserved in ts+ transformants through primary and secondary transfections. Two cosmid clones convert the ts- phenotype of tsBN2 cells to ts+ with more than 100 times a higher efficiency, compared with cases of transfection with total human DNA. Thus, the cloned DNA fragments contain an active human gene that complements the tsBN2 mutation. 相似文献

Analysis of acetylcholine receptor clones isolated from a human leg muscle cDNA library, revealed that the alpha-subunit existed as two isoforms. A novel exon, coding for 25 amino acids, was located in the human genomic DNA sequence; its insertion into the alpha-subunit gives the new isoform of 462 amino acids. In addition, mRNAs for the two isoforms were found in equal proportions in poly(A)+ RNA obtained from three further sources including partially denervated and innervated human muscle and the rhabdomyosarcoma cell line TE671. Both protein isoforms can be expressed in E. coli. No evidence of a sequence related to that of the new exon was found in cDNA derived from poly(A)+ RNA isolated from fetal calf or embryonic chick muscle or Torpedo marmorata electric organ. 相似文献

DNA sequence complementary to the mRNA for rabbit interleukin-1 precursor (preIL-1) has been cloned from the cDNA library constructed using partially purified poly(A)+RNA from induced rabbit alveolar macrophages by mRNA hybridization-translation assay. By using this cDNA as a probe, human IL-1 cDNA was isolated from the cDNA library prepared using poly(A)+RNA from induced HL-60 cells, a human monocyte-like cell line. The amino acid sequences of the human and rabbit preIL-1 deduced from the cDNA sequences reveal their primary structures which consists of 271 and 267 amino acid residues, respectively. The amino acid sequence is 64% conserved between human and rabbit. The difference in number of amino acid residues results from the carboxy-terminal extention of 4 amino acid residues in human preIL-1. Expression of the cloned human cDNA in E. coli yielded biologically active IL-1. 相似文献

A temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant of the BHK21 cell line derived from golden hamsters, tsBN462 has a mutation in the gene encoding the largest subunit of the TFIID complex, TAFII250/p230/CCG1, and arrests in the G1 phase at the nonpermissive temperature, 39.5°C. We found that tsBN462 cells underwent apoptosis following growth arrest at 39.5°C, suggesting a role for CCG1 as a repressor of apoptosis. By electron microscopic observation, tsBN462 cells at 39.5°C showed characteristic features of apoptosis. Apoptosis was not suppressed by expression of Bc1-2 or the adenovirus E1B 19 kDa protein. Cell death was suppressed completely by expression of wild-type CCG1 and partially by wild-type p53, a growth suppressor protein. Cell cycle arrest induced by p53 may help survival of tsBN462 cells at 39.5°C. Apoptosis was accelerated in SV40 large T antigen-transformed tsBN462 cells at 39.5°C where SV40 large T antigen formed a complex with p53, implying that the apoptosis of tsBN462 cells at 39.5°C occurred in a p53-independent manner. Our results suggest that CCG1/TAFII250 is required for the expression of factors regulating apoptosis. 相似文献

We cloned and sequenced a plant cDNA that encodes U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) 70K protein. The plant U1 snRNP 70K protein cDNA is not full length and lacks the coding region for 68 amino acids in the amino-terminal region as compared to human U1 snRNP 70K protein. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence of the plant U1 snRNP 70K protein with the amino acid sequence of animal and yeast U1 snRNP 70K protein showed a high degree of homology. The plant U1 snRNP 70K protein is more closely related to the human counter part than to the yeast 70K protein. The carboxy-terminal half is less well conserved but, like the vertebrate 70K proteins, is rich in charged amino acids. Northern analysis with the RNA isolated from different parts of the plant indicates that the snRNP 70K gene is expressed in all of the parts tested. Southern blotting of genomic DNA using the cDNA indicates that the U1 snRNP 70K protein is coded by a single gene. 相似文献

Molecular cloning and expression of human tumor-associated polymorphic epithelial mucin. 总被引:37,自引:0,他引:37

Human mammary cells present on the cell surface a polymorphic epithelial mucin (PEM) which is developmentally regulated and aberrantly expressed in tumors. PEM carries tumor-associated epitopes recognized by the monoclonal antibodies HMFG-1, HMFG-2, and SM-3. Previously isolated partial cDNA clones revealed that the core protein contained a large domain consisting of variable numbers of 20-amino acid repeat units. We now report the full sequence for PEM, as deduced from cDNA sequences. The encoded protein consists of three distinct regions: the amino terminus consisting of a putative signal peptide and degenerate repeats; the major portion of the protein which is the tandem repeat region; the carboxyl terminus consisting of degenerate tandem repeats and a unique sequence containing a transmembrane sequence and a cytoplasmic tail. Potential O-glycosylation sites (serines or threonines) make up more than one-fourth of the amino acids. Length variations in the tandem repeat result in PEM being an expressed variable number tandem repeat locus. Tandem repeats appear to be a general characteristic of mucin core proteins. 相似文献

Human plasma prekallikrein, a zymogen to a serine protease that contains four tandem repeats 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
The amino acid sequence of human plasma prekallikrein was determined by a combination of automated Edman degradation and cDNA sequencing techniques. Human plasma prekallikrein was fragmented with cyanogen bromide, and 13 homogeneous peptides were isolated and sequenced. Cyanogen bromide peptides containing carbohydrate were further digested with trypsin, and the peptides containing carbohydrate were isolated and sequenced. Five asparagine-linked carbohydrate attachment sites were identified. The sequence determined by Edman degradation was aligned with the amino acid sequence predicted from cDNAs isolated from a lambda gt11 expression library. This library contained cDNA inserts prepared from human liver poly(A) RNA. Analysis of the cDNA indicated that human plasma prekallikrein is synthesized as a precursor with a signal peptide of 19 amino acids. The mature form of the protein that circulates in blood is a single-chain polypeptide of 619 amino acids. Plasma prekallikrein is converted to plasma kallikrein by factor XIIa by the cleavage of an internal Arg-Ile bond. Plasma kallikrein is composed of a heavy chain (371 amino acids) and a light chain (248 amino acids), and these 2 chains are held together by a disulfide bond. The heavy chain of plasma kallikrein originates from the amino-terminal end of the zymogen and is composed of 4 tandem repeats that are 90 or 91 amino acid residues in length. These repeat sequences are also homologous to those in human factor XI. The light chain of plasma kallikrein contains the catalytic portion of the enzyme and is homologous to the trypsin family of serine proteases. 相似文献

We have isolated a full-length mouse cDNA encoding a lysine-rich protein of 1,131 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 126 kDa. The protein binds in a sequence-unspecific manner to DNA, is localized exclusively in the nucleus, and contains a putative ATP binding site and a stretch of 80 amino acids with homology to the carboxy terminus of prokaryotic DNA ligases. On the basis of the following facts, we conclude that the isolated cDNA encodes the 140-kDa subunit of mouse replication factor C (mRFC140). (i) The sequence around the ATP binding site shows significant homology to three small subunits of human replication factor C. (ii) Polyclonal antibodies raised against the protein encoded by this cDNA cross-react with the 140-kDa subunit of purified human replication factor C (hRFC140) and recognize in mouse cell extracts an authentic protein with an apparent molecular mass of 130 kDa. (iii) Sequence comparison with a human cDNA isolated by using tryptic peptide sequence information from purified hRFC140 revealed 83% identity of the encoded proteins. The mRFC140 gene is ubiquitously expressed, and two mRNAs approximately 5.0 and 4.5 kb long have been detected. The gene was mapped by in situ hybridization to mouse chromosome 5, and its human homolog was mapped to chromosome 4 (p13-p14). 相似文献

Cloning and sequencing of a human pancreatic tumor mucin cDNA 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24

A monospecific polyclonal antiserum against deglycosylated human pancreatic tumor mucin was used to select human pancreatic mucin cDNA clones from a lambda gt11 cDNA expression library developed from a human pancreatic tumor cell line. The full-length 4.4-kilobase mucin cDNA sequence included a 72-base pair 5'-untranslated region and a 307-base pair 3'-untranslated region. The predicted amino acid sequence for this cDNA revealed a protein of 122,071 daltons containing 1,255 amino acid residues of which greater than 60% were serine, threonine, proline, alanine, and glycine. Approximately two-thirds of the protein sequence consisted of identical 20-amino acid tandem repeats which were flanked by degenerate tandem repeats and nontandem repeat sequences on both the amino-terminal and carboxyl-terminal ends. The amino acid sequence also contained five putative N-linked glycosylation sites, a putative signal sequence and transmembrane domain, and numerous serine and threonine residues (potential O-linked glycosylation sites) outside and within the tandem repeat position. The cDNA and deduced amino acid sequence of the pancreatic mucin sequence was over 99% homologous with a mucin cDNA sequence derived from breast tumor mucin, even though the native forms of these molecules are quite distinct in size and degree of glycosylation. 相似文献

We have cloned the full length of a novel cDNA named Bombyx mori cuticle protein that contains an AlaAlaProAla/Val-repeat (BMCPA) from a cDNA library of integument in the larval silkworm. Both a typical tandem repeat (A-A-P-A/V) for cuticle protein and a unique tandem repeat with Ser, Ala, Gly, Pro, Val, Tyr and Thr were observed in the predicted amino acid sequence of the cDNA encoding BMCPA. Approximately 80% of the amino acids in BMCPA were composed of Ser, Ala, Gly, Pro, Val and Tyr. Northern-hybridization analysis indicated that BMCPA mRNA is expressed only in the larval epidermis and that the expression pattern of the BMCPA gene in the developmental stage was observed mainly at the larval stage. We propose BMCPA may be a novel component of cuticle, and may play an important role in the integument of the larval silkworm. 相似文献
