A full-length 515 base pairs cDNA for cytochrome c oxidase subunit V of D. discoideum was isolated from a lambda gt11 expression library. The encoded polypeptide, whose identity was confirmed by partial protein sequencing, is 119 amino acids long (Mr = 13,352) and does not contain a cleavable presequence. The protein, which is homologous to human subunit Vb and yeast subunit IV, exhibits the highest degree of sequence conservation found among nuclear-encoded subunits of cytochrome c oxidase from distantly related organisms. All the invariant residues are clustered in two regions of the C-terminus which include the putative amino acids involved in the coordination of the Zn ion tightly associated to eukaryotic oxidase. 相似文献

A pregnant-induced clone was identified by differential screening from a cDNA library of mouse mammary gland. The clone was identified as a full-length cDNA encoding the F1F0-ATP synthase g subunit. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of mouse ATP synthase g subunit with those of bovine species showed 86% identity. The high levels of ATP synthase g subunit mRNA were detected in heart and uterine tissues. 相似文献

We have isolated and sequenced overlapping cDNA clones from a breast carcinoma cDNA library containing the entire coding region of both the R1 and R2 subunits of the human ribonucleotide reductase gene. The coding region of the human R1 subunit comprises 2376 nucleotides and predicts a polypeptide of 792 amino acids (calculated molecular mass 90,081). The sequence of this subunit is almost identical to the equivalent mouse ribonucleotide reductase subunit with 97.7% homology between the mouse and human R1 subunit amino acid sequences. The coding region of the human R2 subunit of ribonucleotide reductase comprises 1170 nucleotides and predicts a polypeptide of 389 amino acids (calculated molecular mass 44,883), which is one amino acid shorter than the equivalent mouse subunit. The human and mouse R2 subunits display considerable homology in their carboxy-terminal amino acid sequences, with 96.3% homology downstream of amino acid 68 of the human and mouse R2 proteins. However, the amino-terminal portions of these two proteins are more divergent in sequence, with only 69.2% homology in the first 68 amino acids. 相似文献

The cDNA sequence and chromosomal location of the murine GABAA alpha 1 receptor gene. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The murine GABAA/benzodiazepine (GABAA/BZ) receptor alpha 1 subunit cDNA has been isolated from a BALB/c mouse brain library and sequenced. The cDNA is 2665 nucleotides long with an open reading frame of 455 amino acids. It shows significant homology to the GABAA receptor alpha 1 subunit cDNA sequences of other species. Excluding deletions, the murine GABAA alpha 1 receptor exhibits 96% nucleotide and 100% amino acid sequence homology to the rat alpha 1 receptor cDNA and over 91% nucleotide and 98% amino acid sequence homology to the bovine and human alpha 1 receptor cDNAs in the protein coding region. This murine cDNA was used to locate the alpha 1 receptor subunit gene, Gabra-1, to murine Chromosome 11 between Il-3 and Rel. This assignment extends proximally the segment of mouse Chromosome 11 with known homology to human chromosome 5. 相似文献

Ribonucleotide reductase activity is markedly elevated in cell lines selected for resistance to hydroxyurea, a cytotoxic drug known specifically to inhibit ribonucleotide reductase. From a cDNA library constructed from a highly hydroxyurea-resistant hamster lung cell line, 600H in which the activity is elevated more than 80-fold, we have isolated a full length cDNA for the small subunit of the reductase. The cDNA is 3.48 kb long with an open reading frame of 1158 nucleotides and a long 3' flanking region of 2169 nucleotides from the termination codon. The derived polypeptide sequence is closely similar to the small subunit of the mouse, differing from it in 20 amino acid positions. Most of these replacements occur in the N-terminal segment of the protein. The hamster subunit does not contain 4 amino acid residues found in the mouse small subunit near the C-terminal end. RNA blots probed with the cDNA show two poly(A)+ RNA species which are elevated in hydroxyurea-resistant cells. 相似文献

Isolation of an alpha 1 type-IV collagen cDNA clone using a synthetic oligodeoxynucleotide 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We have isolated a cDNA clone (pCIV-1-225) for the alpha 1 subunit of basement membrane (type IV) collagen from a cDNA library made from Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm mouse tumor RNA. The cDNA library was screened with synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides derived from published amino acid (aa) sequences (Schuppan et al., 1982). Nucleotide sequence data established the identity of our cDNA clone to encode an alpha 1 type IV collagen. This clone contains 270 aa of the helical region and has three interruptions in the Gly-X-Y repeat unit. 相似文献

Complementary DNA clones for the regulatory subunit RI beta of cAMP-dependent protein kinases were isolated from a human testis cDNA library using a mouse RI beta cDNA probe. One clone 2.4 kilobases (kb) in length contained an open reading frame of 1137 bases, and encoded a protein of 379 amino acids (excluding the initiator methionine). The human RI beta protein was one amino acid shorter than the corresponding protein in mouse and rat. The nucleotide similarity to mouse and rat sequences was 85.6% and 84.8%, respectively, while the amino acid similarity was 97.6% and 97.3%, respectively. Northern blot analyses revealed a 2.7 kb mRNA in human tissues and a 2.8 kb mRNA in mouse tissues. Both mouse and human RI beta mRNA were found to be expressed in most tissues, and not restricted to brain and testis as reported by others. 相似文献

The amino acid sequence of a vacuolar-type ATPase (V-ATPase) subunit B has been deduced from a cDNA clone isolated from a Manduca sexta larval midgut library. The library was screened by hybridization with a labeled cDNA encoding subunit B of Arabidopsis thaliana tonoplast V-ATPase. The M. sexta V-ATPase subunit B consists of 494 amino acids with a calculated M(r) of 54,902. The amino acid sequence deduced for V-ATPase subunit B of M. sexta is between 98% and 76% identical with that of seven other V-ATPase subunits B and greater than 52% identical with three archaebacterial ATPase subunits B. 相似文献

Molecular cloning of a new human G protein. Evidence for two Gi alpha-like protein families 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The amino acid sequence of a novel G protein alpha subunit (Gx alpha) has been deduced from the nucleotide sequence of a human cDNA clone isolated from a differentiated HL-60 cDNA library. The cDNA encodes a polypeptide of 354 amino acids (Mr 40,519) which is closely related to Gi alpha proteins. The amino acid sequence homology between Gx alpha and human myeloid Gi alpha is 86% with 15 nonconservative substitutions. Gx alpha also shares 86% homology with both rat brain and mouse macrophage Gi alpha but is more homologous (94%) to bovine brain Gi alpha with only 5 nonconservative amino acid differences. G proteins previously termed Gi alpha may fall into at least two distinct groups, with one including human myeloid Gi alpha, rat brain Gi alpha and mouse macrophage Gi alpha; and other Gx alpha and bovine brain Gi alpha. One group probably contains true Gi and the other a new class of G protein whose function remains to be determined. 相似文献

A cloned bovine cDNA encodes an alternate form of the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
While attempting to isolate a cDNA clone for the catalytic subunit of the bovine cAMP-dependent protein kinase, we have isolated cDNAs which code for a protein slightly different than the known amino acid sequence. The alternate cDNA was identified by screening a bovine pituitary cDNA library using synthetic oligonucleotides predicted from the known amino acid sequence of the catalytic subunit. The cDNA which we identified, encodes a protein which is 93% identical to the known amino acid sequence of the bovine catalytic subunit. It seems likely that this cDNA represents a previously undiscovered catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The mRNA for the alternate catalytic subunit is different in size from the mRNA coding for the previously known catalytic subunit and also has a different tissue distribution. These findings suggest that there are at least two different genes for the catalytic subunit. The differences in amino acid sequence and tissue distribution suggest the possibility of important functional differences in the two enzymes. 相似文献

A cDNA encoding the human GABAA receptor beta 3 subunit has been isolated from a brain cDNA library and its nucleotide sequence has been determined. This gene, GABRB3, has recently been mapped to human chromosome 15q11q13, the region deleted in Angelman and Prader-Willi syndromes. The association of distinct phenotypes with maternal versus paternal deletions of this region suggests that one or more genes in this region show parental-origin-dependent expression (genetic imprinting). Comparison of the inferred human beta 3 subunit amino acid sequence with beta 3 subunit sequences from rat, cow, and chicken shows a very high degree of evolutionary conservation. We have used this cDNA to map the mouse beta 3 subunit gene, Gabrb-3, in recombinant inbred strains. The gene is located on mouse chromosome 7, very closely linked to Xmv-33 between Tam-1 and Mtv-1, where two other genes from human 15q11q13 have also been mapped. This provides further evidence for a region of conserved synteny between human chromosome 15q11q13 and mouse chromosome 7. Proximal and distal regions of mouse chromosome 7 show genetic imprinting effects; however, the region of homology with human chromosome 15q11q13 has not yet been associated with these effects. 相似文献

A universal oligonucleotide probe for acetylcholine receptor genes. Selection and sequencing of cDNA clones for the mouse muscle beta subunit 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
A region of 25 nucleotides is highly conserved in genes coding for the alpha, beta, gamma, and delta subunits of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) of human, mouse, calf, chicken, and Torpedo. Based on this observation, a 2-fold degenerate oligonucleotide was synthesized and used as a probe to screen a cDNA library made from a mouse myogenic cell line. Clones coding for the beta, gamma, and delta subunits were identified by the probe. The protein sequence deduced from the beta subunit clones codes for a precursor polypeptide of 501 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 56,930 daltons, which includes a signal peptide of 23 amino acids. The protein sequence and structural features of the beta subunits of mouse, calf, and Torpedo are conserved. A clone coding for the mouse gamma subunit was isolated, and its identity was confirmed by alignment of its sequence to previously published cDNA sequences for the mouse and calf gamma subunits. The clone contained approximately 200 nucleotides more at its 3' end untranslated region than a mouse gamma clone recently described. Northern blot analysis, utilizing as probes these beta and gamma subunit cDNAs and previously characterized alpha and delta subunit cDNAs, shows that the steady-state levels of the four AChR mRNAs increase coordinately during terminal differentiation of cultured C2 and C2i mouse myoblasts. The increase in mRNA levels can account for the rise of cell surface receptors during myogenesis and suggests that the muscle AChR genes may be regulated during development by a common mechanism. Utilization of this oligonucleotide probe should prove useful for screening a variety of libraries made from different species and tissues which are known to express AChRs. 相似文献

A cDNA clone was isolated from a rat superior cervical ganglion cDNA library with an oligonucleotide that hybridized to muscle-like nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subunit cDNA. The deduced amino acid sequence possesses characteristics expected of a nAChR subunit that does not bind acetylcholine, in addition to distinctive features such as unique cysteine residues and N-linked glycosylation sites. 相似文献

Adaptins are the major components of adaptors, the protein complexes that link clathrin to transmembrane proteins (e.g., receptors) in coated pits and vesicles. The plasma membrane adaptor contains an alpha- adaptin subunit and a beta-adaptin subunit, while the Golgi adaptor contains a gamma-adaptin subunit and a beta'-adaptin subunit. A partial cDNA clone encoding gamma-adaptin was isolated from a bovine brain expression library by screening with antibodies, and was used to obtain a cDNA clone from a mouse brain library containing the full coding sequence. The identity of the clones was confirmed by protein sequencing. The deduced amino acid sequence of gamma-adaptin was found to be homologous to that of alpha-adaptin, with several stretches of identical amino acids or conservative substitutions in the first approximately 70 kD, and 25% identity overall. Weaker homology was seen between gamma- and beta-adaptins. Like both alpha- and beta-adaptins, gamma-adaptin has a proline and glycine-rich hinge region, dividing it into NH2- and COOH-terminal domains. A chimeric gamma-adaptin was constructed from the mouse and bovine cDNAs and transfected into Rat 1 fibroblasts. Immunofluorescence microscopy was carried out using an mAb which recognizes an epitope present on the chimera but not found on the rodent protein. The construct was found to have a distribution typical of endogenous gamma-adaptin. Using this transfection system, it should now be possible to exchange domains between alpha- and gamma-adaptins, to try to find out how adaptors are targeted to the appropriate membrane compartment of the cell, and how they recruit the appropriate receptors into the coated vesicle. 相似文献

Cloning of the H,K-ATPase beta subunit. Tissue-specific expression, chromosomal assignment, and relationship to Na,K-ATPase beta subunits 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

We have isolated cDNA clones encoding the bovine and rat gastric H,K-ATPase beta subunit. A bovine abomasum lambda gt11 cDNA library was screened with a monoclonal antibody raised against the rabbit H,K-ATPase beta subunit. A single positive phage clone containing an approximately 900-base pair cDNA insert was identified as reactive with the antibody. The identity of the cDNA was established by comparing the deduced amino acid sequence with sequences of cyanogen bromide fragments of the porcine H,K-ATPase beta subunit. Polymerase chain reaction and rapid amplification of cDNA ends were used to generate a cDNA fragment encoding the carboxyl-terminal portion of the rat gastric H,K-ATPase beta subunit. A rat stomach cDNA library was screened with the polymerase chain reaction product, and several full-length beta subunit cDNA clones were identified. The open reading frame predicts a protein of 294 amino acids with a molecular weight of 33,689. The rat H,K-ATPase beta subunit shows 41% amino acid sequence identity to the rat Na,K-ATPase beta 2 subunit and shares a number of structural similarities with Na,K-ATPase beta subunit isoforms. By analyzing the segregation of restriction fragment length polymorphisms among recombinant inbred strains of mice, we localized the H,K-ATPase beta subunit gene to murine chromosome 8. Northern and Western blot analysis reveals that this gene is expressed exclusively in stomach. Our results suggest that the H,K-ATPase and Na,K-ATPase beta subunits evolved from a common ancestral gene and may play similar functional roles in enzyme activity. 相似文献

We have cloned and sequenced rat testis cDNAs coding for a calcium binding polypeptide similar to calcineurin beta subunit, the Ca(2+)-binding subunit of the Ca2+/calmodulin stimulated protein phosphatase. Rat testis cDNA library was screened with a monoclonal antibody Va1 raised against bovine brain calcineurin beta subunit. The deduced amino acid sequence is similar to that of human brain calcineurin beta subunit with respect to containing four putative calcium binding sites. However, distinct differences were found: 1) The cloned cDNA had six amino acids polypeptide tail at carboxy-terminal which is absent in human brain calcineurin beta subunit. This amino acids tail makes the carboxy-terminal highly hydrophilic in contrast to the human brain beta subunit which is hydrophobic at carboxy-terminal; 2) eleven amino acids at the N terminal of the cloned cDNA were completely different from the corresponding region of the brain calcineurin beta subunit. 相似文献
