The gene for Saccharomyces cerevisiae inorganic pyrophosphatase, PPA, has been cloned by hybridization of "long" oligonucleotide probes with both cDNA and genomic S. cerevisiae libraries. The nucleotide sequence of 1612 bp from a genomic subclone that includes the entire coding region gives a deduced amino acid sequence that has nine differences (out of a total of 286 residues) from the previously published amino acid sequence that was determined directly. The codon usage in PPA is as expected for a "highly expressed" yeast gene. The upstream region contains a poly dA/dT sequence that might comprise a constitutive promoter. The PPA gene appears to be present in a single copy within the S. cerevisiae genome and has been localized to chromosome II.  相似文献

Selective cloning of the cDNA coding for a weak neurotoxin (WTX) from cobra N. kaouthia including the 5'- and 3'-non-translated regions (NTR) is described. The known amino acid sequence of WTX was used together with the nucleotide sequence of a weak neurotoxin NNAM2 from cobra Naja atra, to design WTX-specific primers for direct amplification of an internal WTX cDNA fragment by RT- PCR. The sequence of the complete WTX cDNA was determined in sequencing runs on internal PCR products, cloned 3'- and 5'-RACE-fragments and several full-length cDNA clones. The cDNA coding sequence is in excellent agreement with the previously determined WTX amino acid sequence, has a high homology with other known weak toxin cDNAs, whereas even higher homology (up to 96%) with several classes of 3-finger toxins was detected in the 59 bp 3'-NTR consensus sequence. A possible function of the highly conserved nucleotide sequence elements is discussed.  相似文献

Organization of the genes encoding chalcone synthase in Pisum sativum   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
To analyze the regulation of defense-related genes by signal molecules produced by phytopathogens, we isolated genes that encode chalcone synthase (CHS) in Pisum sativum. We have obtained seven independent genomic clones that contain at least seven classes of CHS genes, identified by the hybridization analysis to CHS cDNA and by the restriction mapping analysis. Two of the genomic clones (clone 5 and 6) each contain two CHS genes in a tandem repeat. The nucleotide sequence analysis of CHS genomic clone 5 revealed that PsCHS1 and PsCHS2 were corresponding genes of the CHS cDNA clones, pCC6 and pCC2, respectively, as reported earlier. Both genes are interrupted by a single intron of 88 nucleotides with identical sequences, although exonic sequences and 5-flanking sequences are divergent. Nucleotide sequences of the introns in five other classes of CHS genes showed that three classes had an intron of 87 nt with a striking homology to each other, but that the intron of the other two classes of CHS genes showed heterogeneity both in size and nucleotide sequence. 5-upstream regions of PsCHS1 and PsCHS2 did not show sequence homology except the 31 bp identical sequence that contains the CCTACC motif resembling the box-1 sequence. Both PsCHS1 and PsCHS2 genes are shown to be induced by fungal elicitor by a primer extension analysis and a transient transformation analysis using pea protoplasts prepared from suspension cultured-cells.  相似文献

A cDNA library was derived from the poly(A)+ RNA of young tomato leaves. The library was cloned in a gt11 system and screened by synthetic oligonucleotide probes having sequences that match the codes of conserved regions of amino acid sequences of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD) proteins from a wide range of eukaryotic organisms. Two cDNAs were isolated, cloned and sequenced. One of the cDNAs, P31, had a full-size open reading frame of 456 bp with a deduced amino acid sequence having an 80% homology with the deduced amino acid sequence of the cytosolic SOD-2 cDNA of maize. The other cDNA, T10 (extended by T1), had a 651 bp open reading frame that revealed, upon computer translation, 90% homology to the amino acid sequence of mature spinach chloroplast SOD. The 5 end of the reading frame seems to code for a putative transit peptide. This work thus suggests for the first time an amino acid sequence for the transit peptide of chloroplast SOD. Northern hybridizations indicated that each of the P31 and T10 clones hybridized to a blotted poly(A)+ RNA species. These two species are differentially expressed in the plant organs: e.g., the species having the T10 sequence was detected in the leaves but not in roots, while the one with the P31 sequence was expressed in both leaves and roots. The cDNA clones P31 and T10 were also hybridized to Southern blots of endonuclease fragmented tomato DNA. The clones hybridized to specific fragments and no cross hybridization between the two clones was revealed under stringent hybridization conditions; the hybridization pattern indicated that, most probably, only one locus is coding for each of the two mRNA species.  相似文献

Acidic epididymal glycoprotein (AEG) is a 31,000 molecular weight secretory protein of the rat epididymis. Screening of a rat epididymal cDNA library with affinity-purified AEG antiserum yielded cDNA for AEG. Identity of the clones was verified by comparison of amino acid sequence of the purified protein with the sequence derived from the nucleotide sequence of the cDNA isolates. Two classes of AEG cDNA, approximately 1500 base pairs (bp) and 950 bp in length, differed by 538 bp in the 3'-untranslated region and by four single nucleotide mismatches, one of which was in the coding region. Northern blot hybridization of epididymal RNA revealed two species of AEG mRNA, corresponding in length to each type of cDNA. Analysis of RNA from individual animals provided evidence that the two mRNA species are the products of allelic genes. In vivo studies demonstrated that the level of total AEG mRNA is regulated by androgen. Amino acid sequence homology of AEG with metal-binding domains of several proteins suggests that AEG is a metalloprotein.  相似文献

cDNA clones encoding bovine gamma-crystallins   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
We have determined the nucleotide sequence of two bovine lens gamma-crystallin cDNA clones, pBL gamma II-1 and pBL gamma III-1. The 644 bp cDNA insert of pBL gamma II-1 contains coding information for the entire amino acid sequence of bovine gamma II-crystallin. The 497 bp cDNA insert of pBL gamma III-1 encodes a homologous but different gamma-crystallin polypeptide, and appears to lack the coding information for the C-terminal 17 amino acid residues. While the nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequences of the coding regions of the clones show a high degree of homology, the untranslated leader sequences are relatively dissimilar. The leader sequence of pBL gamma III-1 is strikingly homologous to a portion of a rabbit immunoglobulin alpha-heavy chain mRNA.  相似文献

The Nucleotide Sequence of Human Acylamino Acid-Releasing Enzyme   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
The nucleotide sequence of a cDNA coding for the human acylaminoacid-releasing enzyme (AARE, also known as acylpeptide hydrolase)[EC 3.4.19.1] subunit has been determined. The amino acid sequenceof human AARE subunit deduced from its cDNA nucleotide sequenceshowed a high degree of identity (91.5%) with both the correspondingproteins from the pig and the rat. The AARE cDNA shows 99.2%identity with a 3.3 kb cDNA transcribed from a locus (DNF15S2)on the short arm of human chromosome 3, whose deletion is associatedwith small cell lung cancer, taking into consideration thatthe sequence of the 3.3-kb cDNA previously reported was causedby misreading.  相似文献

Summary We have used the cDNA clone encoding maize glutathione-S-transferase (GST I) to isolate a genomic DNA clone containing the complete GST I gene. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the cDNA and genomic clones has yielded a complete amino acid sequence for maize GST I and provided the exon-intron map of its gene. The mRNA homologous sequences in the maize GST I gene consist of a 107 bp 5 untranslated region, a 642 bp coding region and 340 bp of the 3 untranslated region. They are divided into three exons by two introns which interrupt the coding region. The 5 untranslated spacer contains an unusual sequence of pentamer AGAGG repeated seven times. The inbred maize line (Missouri 17) contains a single gene for GST I, whereas the hybrid line (3780A) contains two genes. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the primer extended cDNA products reveals that the 5 untranslated regions of the two genes in the hybrid 3780A are identical except for a 6 bp internal deletion (or insertion). The amino acid sequence of maize GST I shares no apparent sequence homology with the published sequences of animal GST's and represents the first published sequence of a plant GST. re]19850813 ac]19851126  相似文献

We have examined actin cDNA of the flatworm Diphyllobothrium dendriticum (Cestoda). Actin is a contractile protein that has been implicated in a variety of developmental and cellular processes. It is highly conserved and present in all eukaryotic cells. It is of particular interest to analyze evolutionary preserved genes in flatworms, because ancestral flatworms are regarded to play a central role in the evolution of the metazoans (Barnes et al., 1998). Screening a cDNA library of D. dendriticum (UniZap XR, Stratagene) with a human -actin probe resulted in several positive clones. One of the cDNA inserts, Didactl, consisting of 1392 bp was completely sequenced. The established nucleotide sequence revealed a 5 untranslated region of 33 bp, the entire open reading frame of 1128 bp and a 3 untranslated region of 231 bp which ends in a stretch of 21 A residues. The potential polyadenylation signal (AATAAA) is located 14 bp upstream of the poly (A) tail. The deduced amino acid sequence of Didactl is 376 amino acids long. It is a typical invertebrate actin (Fyrberg et al., 1981) resembling more the cytoplasmic than the muscular isoforms of vertebrate actins. Didactl is for example 96% homologous to human cytoplasmic -actin but only 92.6% identical with human smooth muscle -actin. The actin proteins are generally encoded by a multigene family which differs in size from species to species. Most organisms have four to eight genes coding for actin in their genome, but the number of actin genes can also be over 20 (Hamelin et al., 1988). Sequence comparisons of Didactl and the partly sequenced cDNA clones indicate that D. dendriticum has at least four different genes coding for actin in its genome.  相似文献

A cDNA clone (WL : AGA.1) encoding wheat leaf ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase has been isolated from a gt11 expression library, by immunological screening with anti-spinach leaf ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase serum. The WL : AGA.1 cDNA is 948 bp long and contains approximately 55% of the complete wheat leaf ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase mRNA sequence, estimated from Northern blot experiments. A wheat endosperm cDNA library was subsequently constructed in gt11 and six clones hybridising to the cDNA insert of clone WL : AGA.1 were isolated. The longest of these wheat endosperm ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase cDNAs, clone WE : AGA.7, is nearly full-length (1798 bp), indicated by Northern blot analysis of wheat endosperm mRNA and nucleotide sequence analysis.Southern hybridisation analysis and restriction enzyme mapping indicated that the wheat leaf and wheat endosperm ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase cDNAs and genes are members of two distinct gene families. In addition, restriction enzyme mapping revealed polymorphism in the wheat endosperm ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase cDNAs, indicating the existence of at least two wheat endosperm ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase gene sub-families.Subsequent nucleotide sequence analysis indicates that there is approximately 55% identity between wheat leaf and wheat endosperm ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase cDNAs. In contrast, members of each sub-family of endosperm cDNA, represented by clones WE : AGA.3 and WE : AGA.7, are 96% identical.  相似文献

By differential hybridization screening, we previously selected a class of cDNA clones from a gt10 cDNA library that was constructed from the total poly(A)+ RNA of mature cowpea cotyledons (Plant Cell Physiol 31: 39–44, 1990). pSAS10, a clone of this class, hybridized with a cDNA probe complementary to poly(A)+ RNA from cotyledons collected 1 day after the onset of imbibition (DAI), but not with the cDNA probe from cotyledons at development stage II (13 to 15 days after flowering, DAF). pSAS10 mRNA was detectable only in cotyledons at development stage III (17 to 19 DAF) or later, and its level began to decline when seeds germinated. We have suggested that pSAS10 mRNA is likely to belong to the class of stored mRNA or the mRNA that is formed at the late stage of seed maturation, is conserved in quiescent seeds and becomes functional at the early stage of germination. We determined the nucleotide sequence of pSAS10 cDNA consisting of 459 bp and an approximately 36 bp poly(A) tract, and deduced the amino acid sequence of its product, a 10-kDa cysteine-rich polypeptide. Synthesis of pSAS10 mRNA was induced just before germination began, not only in mature seeds but also in immature seeds even at stages I (9 to 11 DAF) and II (13 to 15 DAF) if they were placed under conditions suitable for germination.  相似文献

cDNA clones of rat brain proteolipid protein (PLP), also named lipophilin, the major integral myelin membrane protein, and of myelin basic protein (MBP), the major extrinsic myelin protein, have been isolated from a rat brain cDNA library cloned into the PstI site of pBR322. Poly(A)+ RNA from actively myelinating 18-day-old rats has been reversely transcribed. Oligonucleotides synthesized according to the established amino-acid sequence of lipophilin and the nucleotide sequence of the small myelin basic protein of the N-terminal, the central and C-terminal region of their sequences were used as hybridization probes for screening. The largest insert in one of several lipophilin clones was 2,585 base pairs (bp) in length (pLp 1). It contained 521 bp of the C-terminal coding sequence and the complete 2,064 bp long non-coding 3' sequence. The myelin basic protein cDNA insert of clones pMBP5 and pMBP6 is 2,530 bp long and that of clones pMBP2 and pMBP3 640 bp. These clones were also characterized. pMBP2 was sequenced and used together with the lipophilin cDNA clones as hybridization probes to estimate the lipophilin and myelin basic protein mRNA levels of rat brain during the myelination period. The expression of the lipophilin and myelin basic protein genes during development of the myelin sheath appears to be strictly coordinated.  相似文献

Summary Sporamin, which accounts for 80% of the total soluble proteins in sweet potato tuberous roots, consists of two polypeptide classes, A and B. The sporamin cDNA clones can also be classified into sporamin A and B subfamilies based on their sequence homologies, with intra-subfamily homologies being much higher than inter-subfamily homologies. The sequence of an essentially full-length cDNA for sporamin B was compared with that for sporamin A. The coding sequences of two cDNAs share 83% sequence homology. The sequences in the 5- and 3-noncoding regions show many deletions in addition to base substitutions. The endpoints of deletions longer than 4 bp match precisely to the endpoints of short direct repeats present in the other sequence, which suggests that these deletions are generated by slipped mispairing during DNA replication. In the 5- and 3-noncoding region of sporamin B cDNA, there are 5 bp direct repeats with sequences complementary to each other. Since most of these repeats are absent in sporamin A cDNA, these structural features may cause a difference in the secondary structure between A and B mRNAs and affect the translational efficiencies or stabilities of the mRNAs. Precursors for both classes of sporamin carry N-terminal extra-sequences which can be separated into a putative signal peptide segment and a segment enriched with basic amino acids. A two-step processing mechanism for the maturation of sporamin is suggested.  相似文献

Several cDNA clones of human and mouse non-muscle tropomyosin have been isolated. All the human clones possess a common 23 bp sequence immediate 5' of the initiation codon. However, in the further upstream regions, the nucleotide sequences diverge. Two of the mouse cDNA clones pPSI-8 and pPSI-14 have identical nucleotide sequence in the coding region sequenced. However, 5' of the initiation codon these clones have only 40 identical nucleotides and further upstream the nucleotide sequences diverge. Analysis of the genomic DNAs of mouse cells indicated the possibility of a common gene giving rise to both the tropomyosin cDNAs differing in their 5' ends.  相似文献

The nucleotide sequence of several cDNA clones coding for the phosphate translocator from spinach chloroplasts has been determined. The cDNA clones were selected from a lambda gt10 library prepared from poly(A)+ mRNA of spinach leaves using oligonucleotide probes modeled from amino acid sequences of tryptic peptides prepared from the isolated translocator protein. A 1439 bp insert of one of the clones codes for the entire 404 amino acid residues of the precursor protein corresponding to a mol. wt of 44,234. The full-length clone includes 21 bp at the transcribed non-coding 5' region with the ribosome initiation sequence ACAATGG, a 1212 bp coding region and 199 bp at the non-coding 3' region excluding the poly(A) tail which starts 17 bp downstream from a putative polyadenylation signal, AATAAT. According to secondary structure predictions the mature part of the chloroplast phosphate translocator exhibits high hydrophobicity and consists of at least seven membrane-spanning segments. Using plasmid-programmed wheat germ lysate the precursor protein was synthesized in vitro and could be imported into spinach chloroplasts where it is inserted into the inner envelope membrane.  相似文献

Summary A cDNA library was made from poly(A+) RNA isolated from developing oat seeds, and oat globulin cDNA clones were identified by hybridization with synthetic oligonucleotides. Globulin clones were characterized by restriction enzyme mapping and cross-hybridization analysis. Based on these comparisons, four classes of globulin clones were distinguished. These clones hybridized to multiple DNA fragments in restriction enzyme digests of oat genomic DNA, indicating that the genes exist in a multigene family. The nucleotide sequence of one of the globulin cDNA clones was determined. The amino acid sequence derived from the DNA sequence verified its identity as an oat globulin and confirmed that the protein is synthesized as a precursor similar to legume 11S storage globulins. The basic polypeptide encoded at the 3 end of the mRNA was found to be homologous to the basic polypeptides of other 11S seed globulins.Abbreviations ds double stranded - kb kilobase Author to whom correspondence should be addressed.

Eleven cDNA clones encoding lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)-A isozyme were isolated from a bovine lymphocyte cDNA library, and the nucleotide sequences of three of the clones (pLDH5, pLDH9 and pLDH12) were determined. With the exception of variation in the 5' portion, two cDNA clones (pLDH9 and pLDH12) appeared to contain the full-length cDNA of 1786 bp, consisting of the protein-coding sequence (996 bp), the 5'- and the 3'-untranslated regions and the poly(dA) tail. The predicted amino acid (aa) sequence of bovine LDH-A (332 aa) showed 96.7% homology with that of pig LDH-A. The protein-coding cDNA region (1650 bp) was inserted into an Escherichia coli expression vector ptac11 and expressed. The protein synthesized in E. coli showed enzyme activity of LDH and was identified by cellogel electrophoresis as LDH-5 isozyme whose subunit M chain is the product of the LDH-A gene.  相似文献
