We present the complete nucleotide sequences of two leghemoglobin genes isolated from soybean DNA. Both genes contain three intervening sequences which interrupt the two coding sequences in identical positions. The 5' and 3' flanking sequences in both genes contain conserved sequences similar to those found in corresponding positions in other eukaryotic genes. Thus, the general DNA sequence organization of these plant genes is similar to that of other eukaryotic genes. 相似文献

The nucleotide sequences at the 5' and 3' termini of RNA isolated from the New Jersey serotype of vesicular stomatitis virus [vsV(NJ)] and two of its defective interfering (DI) particles have been determined. The sequence differs from that previously demonstrated for the RNA from the Indiana serotype of VSV at only 1 of the first 17 positions from the 3' terminus and at only 2 of the first 17 positions from the 5' terminus. The 5'-terminal sequence of VSV(NJ) RNA is the complement of the 3'-terminal sequence, and duplexes which are 20 bases long and contain the 3' and 5' termini have been isolated from this RNA. The RNAs isolated from DI particles of VSV(NJ) have the same base sequences as do the RNAs from the parental virus. These results are in sharp contrast to those obtained with the Indiana serotype of VSV and its DI particles, in which the 3'-terminal sequences differ in 3 positions within the first 17. However, with both serotypes, the 3'-terminal sequence of the DI RNA is the complement of the 5'-terminal sequence of the RNA from the infectious virus. These findings suggest that the 3' and 5' RNA termini are highly conserved in both serotypes and that the 3' terminus of DI RNA is ultimately derived by copying the 5' end of the VSV genome, as recently proposed (D. Kolakofsky, M. Leppert, and L. Kort, in B. W. J. Mahy and R. D. Barry, ed., Negative-Strand Virus and the Host Cell, 1977; M. Leppert, L. Kort, and D. Kolakofsky, Cell 12:539-552, 1977; A. S.

Two sB mutations in the genome of bacteriophage fd were located by sequence analysis in the fd sequence at positions 971 and 6341. Base changes at or close to these positions in phage M13 and in phage fl am 124 also correlate with a loss of sensitivity to B restriction. From the sequence homology between the sequences at the two sB sites the recognition signal for the E. coli B restriction/modification enzzyme is predicted to be: 5' TGA---8N---TGCT 3' 3' ACT---8N---ACGA 5'. 相似文献

We have determined the telomeric DNA sequence of the acellular slime molds Didymium iridis and Physarum polycephalum. In both organisms the telomeres consist of tandem repeats of the hexamer 5'(TTAGGG)3'. This sequence was determined by cloning and sequencing the telomeric fragment of the linear extrachromosomal ribosomal DNA from Didymium, as well as direct end labeling and sequencing the rDNA from both organisms. Interestingly, this sequence is identical to the telomeric DNA sequence of the flagellated protozoan Trypanosoma brucei, and suggests that despite the diversity of telomeric sequences previously determined in lower eukaryotes, the necessity to create functional telomeres has led to constraints on these sequences. 相似文献

The nucleotide sequence of the parvovirus H-1 has been determined by the chain-terminating method of Sanger. The sequence is 5,176 nucleotides long. Two large open reading frames (1 and 2) and two smaller open reading frames (3 and 4) of potential importance were identified in the plus-strand sequence. Promoter sequences are located at map positions 4 and 38 when map positions are expressed as percent of genome length from the 3' end of the virion minus strand. The locations for the genes for the parvovirus capsid proteins and a 76,000-dalton noncapsid protein (NCVP1) were mapped by hybrid-arrested translation. The gene for the capsid proteins VP1 and VP2' is located in the 5' half of the virus genome. The gene for NCVP1 is located in the 3' half of the viral DNA. 相似文献

The structure of the gene encoding chain c of the hemoglobin of the earthworm, Lumbricus terrestris 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The complete nucleotide sequence of the gene for chain c of hemoglobin of the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris has been determined. The sequence of 4037 base pairs (bp) includes about 310 bp of 5'-flanking sequence and 110 bp 3' to the poly(A) site. Comparison of cDNA and genomic sequences shows four silent differences in codons that suggest the presence of at least two genes. The coding sequence is split by two introns of 1344 and 1169 bp at highly conserved positions (Jhiang, S. M., Garey, J. R., and Riggs, A. F. (1988) Science 240, 334-336). The first intron possesses the unusual 5' splice junction sequence GC instead of GT. Many tandem triplet repeats based on (GAT) and (CCT) are present in the first intron. The second intron has nine tandem repeats based on the consensus sequence AAGGAAGGAGGTC. Each intron has several exact inverted repeats of 9-10 bp that might result in loops of 78-140 nucleotides in the RNA prior to splicing. The sequences in the second intron, at positions 2423-2644 are about 65% identical with parts of several genes found in yeast mitochondria and in DNA from several other organisms. 相似文献

The influence of sequence context on the ability of DNA polymerase to bypass sites of base loss was addressed using an in vitro selection system. Oligonucleotides containing either an aldehydic abasic site or tetrahydrofuran surrounded by four randomized bases on both the 5' and 3' sides were used as templates for synthesis by phage T4 DNA polymerase holoenzyme proficient or deficient in the 3'-->5' proofreading exonuclease activity. Successful bypass products were purified, subcloned and the sequences of approximately 100 subclones were determined for each of the four polymerase/lesion combinations tested. Between 7 and 19 % of the bypass products contained deletions of one to three nucleotides in the randomized region. In bypass products not containing deletions, biases for and against certain nucleotides were readily noticeable across the entire randomized region. Template strands from successful bypass products of abasic sites had a high frequency of T in most of the randomized positions, while those from bypass products of tetrahydrofuran had a high frequency of G at the positions immediately to the 3' and 5' side of the lesion. Consensus sequences were shared by successful bypass products of the same lesion but not between bypass products of the two lesions. The consensus sequence for efficient bypass of tetrahydrofuran was over-represented in several frames relative to the lesion. T4 DNA polymerase inserted A opposite abasic sites 63 % of the time in the presence of proofreading and 79 % of the time in its absence, followed by G>T>C, while the insertion of A opposite tetrahydrofuran ranged between 93 % and 100 % in the presence and absence of proofreading, respectively. Finally, sequence context influenced the choice of nucleotide inserted opposite abasic sites and consensus sequences which favored the incorporation of nucleotides other than A were defined. 相似文献

Both the 68-base 5' leader (omega) and the 205-base 3' untranslated region (UTR) of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) promote efficient translation. A 35-base region within omega is necessary and sufficient for the regulation. Within the 3' UTR, a 52-base region, composed of two RNA pseudoknots, is required for regulation. These pseudoknots are phylogenetically conserved among seven viruses from two different viral groups and one satellite virus. The pseudoknots contained significant conservation at the secondary and tertiary levels and at several positions at the primary sequence level. Mutational analysis of the sequences determined that the primary sequence in several conserved positions, particularly within the third pseudoknot, was essential for function. The higher-order structure of the pseudoknots was also required. Both the leader and the pseudoknot region were specifically recognized by, and competed for, the same proteins in extracts made from carrot cell suspension cells and wheat germ. Binding of the proteins is much stronger to omega than the pseudoknot region. Synergism was observed between the TMV 3' UTR and the cap and to a lesser extent between omega and the 3' UTR. The functional synergism and the protein binding data suggest that the cap, TMV 5' leader, and 3' UTR interact to establish an efficient level of translation. 相似文献

The oomycetes, a distinct phylogenetic lineage of fungus-like microorganisms, are heterokonts (stramenopiles) belonging to the supergroup Chromalveolata. Although the complete genomic sequences of a number of oomycetes have been reported, little information regarding the introns therein is available. Here, we investigated the introns of Phytophthora sojae, a pathogen that causes soybean root and stem rot, by a comparative analysis of genomic sequences and expressed sequence tags. A total of 4013 introns were identified, of which 96.6% contained canonical splice sites. The P. sojae genome possessed features distinct from other organisms at 5' splice sites, polypyrimidine tracts, branch sites, and 3' splice sites. Diverse repeating sequences, ranging from 2 to 10 nucleotides in length, were found at more than half of the intron-exon boundaries. Furthermore, 122 genes underwent alternative splicing. These data indicate that P. sojae has unique splicing mechanisms, and recognition of those mechanisms may lead to more accurate predictions of the location of introns in P. sojae and even other oomycete species. 相似文献

Structure and sequence of the human homeobox gene HOX7. 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
A cosmid containing the human sequence HOX7, homologous to the murine Hox-7 gene, was isolated from a genomic library, and the positions of the coding sequences were determined by hybridization. DNA sequence analysis demonstrated two exons that code for a homeodomain-containing protein of 297 amino acids. The open reading frame is interrupted by a single intron of approximately 1.6 kb, the splice donor and acceptor sites of which conform to known consensus sequences. The human HOX7 coding sequence has a very high degree of identity with the murine Hox-7 cDNA. Within the homeobox, the two sequences share 94% identity at the DNA level, all substitutions being silent. This high level of sequence similarity is not confined to the homeodomain; overall the human and murine HOX7 gene products show 80% identity at the amino acid level. Both the 5' and 3' untranslated regions also show significant similarity to the murine gene, with 79 and 70% sequence identity, respectively. The sequence upstream of the coding sequence of exon 1 contains a GC-rich putative promoter region. There is no TATA box, but a CCAAT and numerous GC boxes are present. The region encompassing the promoter region, exon 1, and the 5' region of exon 2 have a higher than expected frequency of CpG dinucleotides; numerous sites for rare-cutter restriction enzymes are present, a characteristic of HTF islands. 相似文献
