We have isolated clones of a processed pseudogene of mouse t complex polypeptide 1 (Tcp-1) and determined the nucleotide sequence of the pseudogene. The pseudogene was 1363 bp long and had no intron. The Tcp-1 pseudogene had 88.4% or 88.3% nucleotide identity to the mouse Tcp-1 cDNA of wild-type (Tcp-1)bor t haplotype (Tcp-1)a, and 87.5% identity to the rat Tcp-1 cDNA. On 12 nucleotide positions where the open reading frames (ORFs) of mouse Tcp-1
band Tcp-1
acDNAs have bp substitutions, the Tcp-1 pseudogene had 6 bp identical to Tcp-1
b, 5 bp identical to Tcp-1
aand 1 bp not identical to neither. On ten amino acid positions where TCP-1B and TCP-1A polypeptides have substitutions, deduced amino acids of the Tcp-1 pseudogene had four amino acids identical to TCP-1B, five amino acids identical to TCP-1A and one amino acid identical to neither. These results suggest that the ancestral mouse Tcp-1 gene would have had no significant difference between the resemblance to Tcp-1
band that to Tcp-1
abefore they were diverged and that amino acids of TCP-1B and TCP-1A would have been substituted in similar high rates.The nucleotide sequence data reported in this paper have been submitted to GenBank and have been assigned the accession number D00851. 相似文献

The human c-Ha-ras2 gene, one of two known members of the Harvey ras family, is reportedly located on the X-chromosome and has lost introns (1, 2). There has heretofore been no information on its precise gene structure and oncogenic potential. We have determined the nucleotide sequence of the c-Ha-ras2 and demonstrate that it is a processed pseudogene surrounded by several direct repeats and contains numerous base substitutions as well as a notable mutation (AGT at codon 12 of the p21 protein) responsible for oncogenic conversion of the known ras genes (3-8). 相似文献

Summary Patterns of nucleotide substitutions in human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I genes were estimated by using phylogenetic trees of DNA sequences. The pattern is defined as a set of 12 parameters, each of which represents the relative frequency of substitutions from a particular nucleotide to another. The pattern at the antigen recognition sites (ARS) in functional MHC genes was remarkably different from that at the remaining coding region (non-ARS). In particular, the proportion of transitions among all the nucleotide substitutions (P
s) was extremely low at the third codon positions of ARS. In the HLA-A genes, P
s at the third codon positions was only 6% in ARS, whereas it was 69% in non-ARS. In HLA-B, the corresponding values were 30% in ARS and 80% in non-ARS, respectively. On the other hand, P
s in a class I pseudogene (HLA-H) was 57%, which was in good agreement with P
s in other pseudogenes. Because pseudogenes are selectively neutral, the pattern in pseudogenes is regarded as the pattern of spontaneous substitution mutations. In general, the pattern in functional genes that are subject to selective forces deviates from the pattern in pseudogenes. At the third codon positions in coding regions, transitions scarcely cause amino acid replacements, whereas about half of transversions do cause replacements. Accordingly, P
s at the third codon positions decreases if amino acid replacements are accelerated by natural selection but increases if amino acids are conserved by functional constraint. Our observations imply that the ARS region is subject to natural selection favoring amino acid replacements, whereas the non-ARS region is subject to functional constraint.

We have isolated and analysed a 2 kb region of the mitochondrial genome of Arabidopsis thaliana (Columbia) showing a high level of nucleotide identity with the mitochondrial (mt) rps14 small-subunit ribosomal protein gene from Oenothera berteriana and Vicia faba, as well as with an open reading frame (ORF) located upstream of the nad3 locus in O. berteriana. The rps14 locus is present as a single copy in the A. thaliana mt genome and has a translational stop codon located near the initiation codon, as well as a deletion of one nucleotide that disturbs the coding sequence. The cloning and sequencing of nine amplified mt rps14 cDNAs clearly demonstrated that this gene is transcribed and that the mRNA precursors are edited at three positions, all involving C-to-U conversions. No editing events changing the stop codon and restoring the correct coding sequence were witnessed within the 9 individual cDNA clones. Therefore, we conclude that the single rps14 sequence of the mitochondrial genome from A. thealiana is in fact a pseudogene that is transcribed and edited but not translated. 相似文献

A porcine glucosephosphate isomeraseprocessed pseudogene has been isolated and sequenced. The pseudogene has several base substitutions as well as an insertion and deletions, and is 83% homologous to the corresponding cDNA. It contains an intervening sequence of 565 bp, is truncated at the 3 end, and is flanked by direct repeats of seven nucleotides. Fluorescent in situ hybridization to porcine metaphase chromosomes localized the processed pseudogene to Chromosome (Chr) 1q1.6-1.7. A (GT)14(AT)15 microsatellite was detected close to the processed pseudogene. 相似文献

A chicken glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) processed pseudogene was identified by inverse PCR using oligonucleotide
primers specific for the 5′ region of the GAPDH mRNA. Molecular cloning and sequence analysis of this genomic sequence shows
that the processed pseudogene is incomplete and arranged in a permuted tail-to-head order. We propose that the tail-to-head
organization is the result of circularization and breakage of a GAPDH retrogene prior to chromosomal integration. PCR analysis
of DNAs from quail, pheasant, and various jungle fowl, shows that the processed pseudogene was formed after the three genera
diverged but prior to Gallus speciation. This is the first report of a chicken GAPDH processed pseudogene sequence. This is also the first published report
of a processed pseudogene with a tail-to-head organization.

Summary Synonymous and nonsynonymous substitution rates at the loci encoding glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gap) and outer membrane protein 3A (ompA) were examined in 12 species of enteric bacteria. By examining homologous sequences in species of varying degrees of relatedness and of known phylogenetic relationships, we analyzed the patterns of synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions within and among these genes. Although both loci accumulate synonymous substitutions at reduced rates due to codon usage bias, portions of thegap andompA reading frames show significant deviation in synonymous substitution rates not attributable to local codon bias. A paucity of synonymous substitutions in portions of theompA gene may reflect selection for a novel mRNA secondary structure. In addition, these studies allow comparisons of homologous protein-coding sequences (gap) in plants, animals, and bacteria, revealing differences in evolutionary constraints on this glycolytic enzyme in these lineages. 相似文献

Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli harbours a pathogenicity island encoding a type 3 secretion system used to translocate effector proteins into the cytosol of intestinal epithelial cells and subvert their function. The structural proteins of the translocon are encoded in a major espADB mRNA processed from a precursor. The translocon mRNA should be highly susceptible to RNase E cleavage because of its AU‐rich leader region and monophosphorylated 5′‐terminus, yet it manages to avoid rapid degradation. Here, we report that the espADB leader region contains a strong Shine–Dalgarno element (SD2) and a translatable mini‐ORF of six codons. Disruption of SD2 so as to weaken ribosome binding significantly reduces the concentration and stability of esp mRNA, whereas codon substitutions that impair translation of the mini‐ORF have no such effect. These findings suggest that occupancy of SD2 by ribosomes, but not mini‐ORF translation, helps to protect espADB mRNA from degradation, likely by hindering RNase E access to the AU‐rich leader region. 相似文献

We have characterized genomic loci encoding translation elongation factor 1Bα (eEF1Bα) in mice and humans. Mice have a single structural locus (named Eef1b2) spanning six exons, which is ubiquitously expressed and maps close to Casp8 on mouse chromosome 1, and a processed pseudogene. Humans have a single intron-containing locus, EEF1B2, which maps to 2q33, and an intronless paralogue expressed only in brain and muscle (EEF1B3). Another locus described previously, EEF1B1, is actually a processed pseudogene on chromosome 15 corresponding to an alternative splice form of EEF1B2. Our study illustrates the value of comparative mapping in distinguishing between processed pseudogenes and intronless paralogues. 相似文献

A full-length cytochrome b pseudogene was found in rodents; it has apparently been translocated from a mitochondrion to the nuclear genome in the subfamily
Arvicolinae. The pseudogene (ψcytb) differed from its mitochondrial counterpart at 201 of 1143 sites (17.6%) and by four indels. Cumulative evidence suggests
that the pseudogene has been translocated to the nucleus. Phylogenetic reconstruction indicates that the pseudogene arose
before the diversification of M. arvalis/M. rossiaemeridionalis from M. oeconomus, but after the divergence of the peromyscine/sigmodontine/arvicoline clades some ∼10 MYA. Published rates of divergence between
mitochondrial genes and their nuclear pseudogenes suggest that the translocation of this mitochondrial gene to the nuclear
genome occurred some 6 MYA, in agreement with the phylogenetic evidence.

Maximum likelihood models of codon substitutions were used to analyze the molecular evolution of a Kunitz trypsin inhibitor
(KTI) gene family in Populus and Salix. The methods support previous assertions that the KTI genes comprise a rapidly evolving gene family. Models that allow for codon specific estimates of the ratio of nonsynonymous
to synonymous substitutions (ω) among sites detect positive Darwinian selection at several sites in the KTI protein. In addition, branch-specific maximum likelihood models show that there is significant heterogeneity in ω among branches
of the KTI phylogeny. In particular, ω is substantially higher following duplication than speciation. There is also evidence for significant
rate heterogeneity following gene duplication, suggesting different evolutionary rates in newly arisen gene duplicates. The
results indicate uneven evolutionary rates both between sites in the KTI protein and among different lineages in the KTI phylogeny, which is incompatible with a neutral model of sequence evolution.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the mitogenome of Bombyx mandarina strain Qingzhou was determined. The circular genome is 15,717 bp long and has the typical gene organization and order of
lepidopteran mitogenomes. All protein-coding sequences are initiated with a typical ATN codon, except the COI gene, which has a 4-bp TTAG putative initiator codon. Eleven of the 13 protein-coding gene have a complete termination codon
(all TAA), but the remaining two genes terminate with incomplete codons. All transfer RNAs (tRNAs) have a clover-leaf structure
typical of the mitochondrial tRNAs, and some of them have a mismatch in the four-stem-and-loop structure. The length of the
A + T rich region of B. mandarina strain Qingzhou is 495 bp, shorter than that of B. mandarina strain Tsukuba (747 bp) but similar to that of Bombyx mori. Phylogenetic analysis based on the whole mitochondrial genome sequences of the available sequenced species (B. mori strains C-108, Aojuku, Backokjam, and Xiafang, B. mandarina strains Tsukuba, Ankang, and Qingzhou, and Antheraea pernyi) shows the origin of the domesticated silkmoth B. mori to be the Chinese B. mandarina. Nuclear mitochondrial pseudogene sequences were detected in the nuclear genome of B. mori with the MEGA BLAST search program. A phylogenetic analysis of these nuclear mitochondrial pseudogene sequences suggests
that B. mori was domesticated independently in different areas and periods. 相似文献
