The full-length cDNA sequence of interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) from the Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, was determined by using PCR with primers designed from known fish IL-1beta sequences followed by elongation of the 5' and 3' ends using Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends (RACE). The cDNA contains a 92-bp 5' untranslated region (UTR), a single open reading frame (ORF) of 732 bp that translates into a 243-amino acid molecule, a 341-bp 3' UTR with four cytokine RNA instability motifs (ATTTA), and a polyadenylation signal (AATAAA) at 15 nucleotides upstream of the poly(A) tail. The organization of the genomic IL-1beta based on the cDNA sequence appeared to be 4 introns and 5 exons. In comparison with known IL-1beta amino acid sequences, including human, catshark, trout, turbot, carp, sea bream, sea bass and goldfish, the amino acid sequence deduced from the cDNA sequence of Nile tilapia showed different levels of identity ranging from 25.32% to 66.80% and homology ranging from 41.88% to 82.19%. Although the entire cDNA sequence of Nile tilapia IL-1beta showed from 49.45% to 67.05% identity to those of other reported IL-1beta cDNAs, each exon also showed different levels of identity to the corresponding exons of other reported IL-1beta cDNAs. The highest nucleotide sequence identity for exon 1 and exons 2-5 of Nile tilapia IL-1beta was found in the corresponding exons of sea bream and sea bass, respectively. After in vitro stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), we found an increased level of IL-1beta expression in head kidney cells compared to that of unstimulated cells. However, this difference was no longer apparent after 4 h of stimulation, at which time the levels were similar in stimulated and unstimulated cells. Head kidney cells stimulated in vivo by an intraperitoneal injection of LPS showed a peak level of IL-1beta expression after 1 day and a decreased level after 3 days. At 7 days after stimulation, we were hardly able to detect IL-1beta expression. 相似文献

Rat mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) cDNA was cloned and characterized. We identified a cDNA containing an open reading frame of 828 amino acids that had an 89% homology with the coding region of the previously characterized mouse mitochondrial GPAT and a predicted amino acid sequence that was 96% identical. The rat 5' UTR was only 159 nucleotides, in contrast to the 926 nucleotide 5' UTR of the mouse cDNA and had an internal deletion of 167 nucleotides. GPAT was expressed in Sf21 insect cells, and specific inhibitors strongly suggest that, like the Escherichia coli GPAT, the recombinant mitochondrial GPAT and the mitochondrial GPAT isoform in rat liver contain critical serine, histidine, and arginine residues. 相似文献

A homologue of mammalian type II interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1RII) was isolated from a rainbow trout cDNA library by differential hybridization using a suppression subtractive hybridization generated probe enriched for sequences upregulated after immune stimulation. The trout cDNA has an ORF encoding 441 amino acids, and represents the first piscine IL-1 receptor described. The predicted amino-acid sequence has 29 and 26% identity with human and mouse IL-1RII, respectively. The trout IL-1 receptor has a domain organization similar to that of mammalian type II receptor, with a short cytoplasmic tail of 24 amino acids. These results suggest that type II receptor is also present in lower vertebrates, and therefore the duplication of an ancestral gene that generated type I and type II IL-1 receptors occurred prior to the time mammals emerged. 相似文献

Isolation of cDNA for a Xenopus sperm-specific basic nuclear protein (SP4) and evidence for expression of SP4 mRNA in primary spermatocytes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

A cDNA library was prepared in lambda gt 11 from poly(A)+ mRNA isolated from a pure population of Xenopus round spermatids and screened with an antibody against SP3-5 (sperm-specific proteins) of Xenopus sperm. Positive clones were sequenced and an arginine-rich clone, designated pXSP531, was obtained. The 473-nucleotide sequence of pXSP531 contained an open reading frame of 237 nucleotides which was preceded by a 5' untranslated region of 67 nucleotides. The 3' untranslated region contained 149 nucleotides, including a consensus polyadenylation signal (AAATAAAA). Twenty nucleotides of a poly(A) tail was contained in the pXSP531. SP3-5 were separated from each other by reverse-phase chromatography and sequenced. The amino acid sequence of the peptide fragments which were obtained by digestion of SP4 with V8 protease and separated by reverse-phase chromatography was identical to the sequence of the N-terminal 43 and C-terminal 15 amino acids deduced from the nucleotide sequence of pXSP531. This result demonstrates that pXSP531 encodes SP4. Northern hybridization of RNA extracted from primary spermatocytes and round spermatids on Days 0 and 6 with SP4 cDNA probe (pXSP531) showed that SP4 mRNA is present both in primary spermatocytes and in round spermatids as is protamine mRNA in the rainbow trout. The size of the SP4 mRNA in round spermatids on Day 0 was longer by 60 nucleotides compared to that in primary spermatocytes and that in spermatids on Day 6 was shorter by 30 nucleotides compared to that on Day 0. These size differences were due to differences in the length of the poly(A) tracts because digestion of poly(A) with ribonuclease H resulted in the shortening of mRNA to the same size for three stages. 相似文献

The complete nucleotide sequence of the neuraminidase (NA) gene of WSN/33 (H1N1) virus was determined. The entire sequence was derived from the insert of cDNA clones, except the last 20 nucleotides, which were determined by primer extension. The WSN NA gene contained 1,409 nucleotides beginning at the 5' end (sense strand), with an untranslated region of 19 nucleotides followed by 1,359 nucleotides coding for 453 amino acids and finally ending with a 31-nucleotide sequence of untranslated region at the 3' termini. The amino acid sequence of WSN NA, as deduced from the DNA sequence, showed the presence of a stretch of 29 amino acids (7 to 35) enriched in hydrophobic amino acids, which may anchor the protein into the viral or cellular membrane. When compared with the PR8 NA sequence, WSN NA appeared to possess a similar structure, including the identical location of all cysteine and proline residues. However, WSN NA contained only three of the five potential glycosylation sites present in PR8 NA. Additionally, WSN NA contained a substitution of a five-amino acid sequence for a six-amino acid sequence in PR8 NA. The possible significance of these sequence changes in the primary structure of WSN NA in the unique role of WSN NA as a virulence factor in mouse brain and MDBK cells is discussed. 相似文献

Molecular cloning of interleukin 1beta from rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss reveals no evidence of an ice cut site. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The complete coding sequence of rainbow trout IL-1beta has been obtained. The gene contains a short 5' UTR (97 bp), a 780 bp open reading frame and a 466 bp 3' UTR, which includes a polyadenylation signal, 7 ATTTA motifs and an 18 bp poly A tail. The predicted amino acid sequence (260 amino acids) contains 3 potential glycosylation sites, with a predicted molecular weight of 29 kDa, and shows between 49 and 56% amino acid similarity to mammalian IL-1betas and 57% similarity to carp IL-1beta. Greatest homology was apparent within the secondary structure of the gene, with few of the amino acids known to bind to the IL-1 receptor being conserved. No ICE cut site was apparent but multiple alignment with mammalian sequences allowed a putative mature peptide of 166 amino acids to be identified, in which Ala(95)would be the amino terminus. Northern blot analysis showed that whilst no IL-1beta expression was detectable in head kidney leukocytes immediately after isolation, expression could be induced by stimulation with LPS for 4 h in culture. Similarly, with isolated head kidney macrophages expression was significantly increased following stimulation with LPS. 相似文献

Human cDNAs coding for angiogenin, a human tumor derived angiogenesis factor, were isolated from a cDNA library prepared from human liver poly(A) mRNA employing a synthetic oligonucleotide as a hybridization probe. The largest cDNA insert (697 base pairs) contained a short 5'-noncoding sequence followed by a sequence coding for a signal peptide of 24 (or 22) amino acids, 369 nucleotides coding for the mature protein of 123 amino acids, a stop codon, a 3'-noncoding sequence of 175 nucleotides, and a poly(A) tail. The gene coding for human angiogenin was then isolated from a genomic lambda Charon 4A bacteriophage library employing the cDNA as a probe. The nucleotide sequence of the gene and the adjacent 5'- and 3'-flanking regions (4688 base pairs) was then determined. The coding and 3'-noncoding regions of the gene for human angiogenin were found to be free of introns, and the DNA sequence for the gene agreed well with that of the cDNA. The gene contained a potential TATA box in the 5' end in addition to two Alu repetitive sequences immediately flanking the 5' and 3' ends of the gene. The third Alu sequence was also found about 500 nucleotides downstream from the Alu sequence at the 3' end of the gene. The amino acid sequence of human angiogenin as predicted from the gene sequence was in complete agreement with that determined by amino acid sequence analysis. It is about 35% homologous with human pancreatic ribonuclease, and the amino acid residues that are essential for the activity of ribonuclease are also conserved in angiogenin. This provocative finding is thought to have important physiological implications. 相似文献

Amino acid sequence of human histidine-rich glycoprotein derived from the nucleotide sequence of its cDNA 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
A lambda gt 11 library containing cDNA inserts prepared from human liver mRNA has been screened with an affinity-purified antibody to human histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) and then with a restriction fragment isolated from the 5' end of the largest cDNA insert obtained by antibody screening. A number of positive clones were identified and shown to code for HRG by DNA sequence analysis. A total of 2067 nucleotides were determined by sequencing 3 overlapping cDNA clones, which included 121 nucleotides of 5'-noncoding sequence, 54 nucleotides coding for a leader sequence of 18 amino acids, 1521 nucleotides coding for the mature protein of 507 amino acids, a stop codon of TAA, and 352 nucleotides of 3'-noncoding sequence followed by a poly(A) tail of 16 nucleotides. The length of the noncoding sequence of the 3' end differed in several clones, but each contained a polyadenylylation or processing sequence of AATAAA followed by a poly(A) tail. More than half of the amino acid sequence of HRG consisted of five different types of internal repeats. Within the last 3 internal repeats (type V), there were 12 tandem repetitions of a 5 amino acid segment with a consensus sequence of Gly-His-His-Pro-His. This repeated portion, referred to as a "histidine-rich region", contained 53% histidine and showed a high degree of similarity to a histidine-rich region of high molecular weight kininogen. 相似文献

The cell surface adhesion molecule human MUC18 (huMUC18 or Mel-CAM) has been postulated to play a key pathogenic role in metastatic melanoma progression. To establish an immunocompetent syngeneic mouse model that would greatly facilitate our understanding of the role of MUC18 in the metastatic behavior of melanoma, we cloned and characterized the mouse MUC18 (muMUC18) cDNA gene. The gene was amplified by RT-PCR and RACE of the poly(A)+RNA isolated from the mouse melanoma cell line B16F10/Queens. The cloned muMUC18 cDNA gene contained 28 nucleotides of 5'-UTR, 908 nucleotides of 3'-UTR, and an open reading frame (ORF) of 1947 nucleotides encoding a protein of 648 amino acids, which is two amino acids longer than huMUC18. The size of the muMUC18 mRNA is about 3 kb with a shorter 3'-UTR than the huMUC18 mRNA (about 3.3 kb). Besides, the sequence in the 3' UTR of the two mRNAs is diverse with only 31% identity. The 5'-UTR and coding sequences of the muMUC18 cDNA are 72.4 and 80.6% identical to those of huMUC18, respectively. The deduced amino acid sequence of the muMUC18 cDNA is 76.2% identical to that of huMUC18. The amino acid sequences deduced from MUC18 cDNA sequences from six other mouse melanoma cell lines are identical except one to three residues, suggesting that the muMUC18 cDNA sequence determined in this report is correct. The muMUC18 protein is predicted to be slightly more acidic than the human protein. The levels of muMUC18 mRNA and protein in nine mouse melanoma cell lines were directly proportional to their ability to establish metastatic colonies in lungs of syngeneic mice. Most biological functions of the muMUC18 may be similar to the huMUC18. 相似文献

The gilthead seabream IL-1beta gene consists of five exons/four introns. The complete coding sequence contains a 102 bp 5' untranslated region (UTR), a single open reading frame of 762 bp which translates into a 253 amino acid molecule, and a 407 bp 3'UTR with a polyadenylation signal 14 nucleotides upstream of the poly(A)tail. The seabream sequence has the highest degree of nucleotide (61.7%) and amino acid (53%) identity with the trout IL-1beta sequences. The IL-1beta message was detected by RT-PCR in head-kidney, blood, spleen, liver, gill and peritoneal exudate of both non-infected and Vibrio anguillarum-challenged fish. More importantly, IL-1beta was highly expressed by purified macrophage monolayers and was up-regulated by lipopolysaccharide and lymphocyte-derived macrophage-activating factor stimulation. 相似文献

Molecular cloning and immune responsive expression of a novel C-type lectin gene from bay scallop Argopecten irradians 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
C-type lectins are Ca(2+)-dependent carbohydrate-recognition proteins that play crucial roles in innate immunity. The cDNA of C-type lectin (AiCTL1) in the bay scallop Argopecten irradians was cloned by expressed sequence tag (EST) and RACE techniques. The full-length cDNA of AiCTL1 was 660 bp, consisting of a 5'-terminal untranslated region (UTR) of 30 bp and a 3' UTR of 132 bp with a polyadenylation signal sequence AATAAA and a poly(A) tail. The AiCTL1 cDNA encoded a polypeptide of 166 amino acids with a putative signal peptide of 20 amino acid residues and a mature protein of 146 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of AiCTL1 was highly similar to those of the C-type lectins from other animals and contained a typical carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD) of 121 residues, which has four conserved disulfide-bonded cysteine residues that define the CRD and two additional cysteine residues at the amino terminus. AiCTL1 mRNA was dominantly expressed in the hemocytes of the bay scallop. The temporal expression of AiCTL1 mRNA in hemocytes was increased by 5.7- and 4.9-fold at 6h after injury and 8h after injection of bacteria, respectively. The structural features, high similarity and expression pattern of AiCTL1 indicate that the gene may be involved in injury healing and the immune response in A. irradians. 相似文献

In this study, complete nucleotide as well as derived amino acid sequence characterization of water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) kappa-casein gene has been presented. Kappa-casein cDNA clones were identified and isolated from a buffalo lactating mammary gland cDNA library. Sequence analysis of kappa-casein cDNA revealed 850 nucleotides with an open reading frame (ORF) of 573 nucleotides, encoding mature peptide of 169 amino acids. The 5' untranslated region (UTR) comprised 71 nucleotides, while 3' UTR was of 206 nucleotides. A total of 11 nucleotide and seven amino acid changes were observed in, buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) as compared to cattle (Bos taurus), sheep (Ovis aries) and goat (Capra hircus). Among these nucleotide changes, eight were unique in buffalo as they were fully conserved in cattle, sheep and goat. Majority of the nucleotide changes and all the amino acid changes; 14 (Asp-Glu), 19(Asp/Ser-Asn), 96(Ala-Thr), 126(Ala-Val), 128(Ala/Gly-Val), 156(Ala/Pro-Val) and 168(Ala/Glu-Val) were limited to exon IV. Three glycosylation sites, Thr 131, Thr 133 and Thr 142 reported in cattle and goat kappa-casein gene were also conserved in buffalo, however, in sheep Thr 142 was replaced by Ala. Chymosin hydrolysis site, between amino acids Phe 105 and Met 106, important for rennet coagulation process, were found to be conserved across four bovid species. Buffalo kappa-casein with the presence of amino acids Thr 136 and Ala 148 seems to be an intermediate of "A" and "B" variants of cattle. Comparison with other livestock species revealed buffalo kappa-casein sharing maximum nucleotide (95.5%) and amino acid (92.6%) similarity with cattle, whereas with pig it showed least sequence similarity of 76.0% and 53.2%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on both nucleotide and amino acid sequence indicated buffalo kappa-casein grouping with cattle, while sheep and goat forming a separate cluster close to them. The non-ruminant species viz. camel, horse and pig were distantly placed, in separate lineages. 相似文献
