Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH):ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) is the largest multiprotein enzyme complex of the respiratory chain. The nuclear-encoded NDUFS8 (TYKY) subunit of complex I is highly conserved among eukaryotes and prokaryotes and contains two 4Fe4S ferredoxin consensus patterns, which have long been thought to provide the binding site for the iron-sulfur cluster N-2. The NDUFS8 cDNA contains an open reading frame of 633 bp, coding for 210 amino acids. Cycle sequencing of amplified NDUFS8 cDNA of 20 patients with isolated enzymatic complex I deficiency revealed two compound heterozygous transitions in a patient with neuropathologically proven Leigh syndrome. The first mutation was a C236T (P79L), and the second mutation was a G305A (R102H). Both mutations were absent in 70 control alleles and cosegregated within the family. A progressive clinical phenotype proceeding to death in the first months of life was expressed in the patient. In the 19 other patients with enzymatic complex I deficiency, no mutations were found in the NDUFS8 cDNA. This article describes the first molecular genetic link between a nuclear-encoded subunit of complex I and Leigh syndrome. 相似文献

We report the cDNA cloning, chromosomal localization, and a mutation in the human nuclear gene encoding the 18-kD (AQDQ) subunit of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I. The cDNA has an open reading frame of 175 amino acids and codes for a protein with a molecular mass of 23.2 kD. Its gene was mapped to chromosome 5. A homozygous 5-bp duplication, destroying a consensus phosphorylation site, in the 18-kD cDNA was found in a complex I-deficient patient. The patient showed normal muscle morphology and a remarkably nonspecific fatal progressive phenotype without increased lactate concentrations in body fluids. The child's parents were heterozygous for the mutation. In 19 other complex I-deficient patients, no mutations were found in the 18-kD gene. 相似文献

Cloning and sequence analysis of the human liver rhodanese: comparison with the bovine and chicken enzymes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The cDNA for the human rhodanese (thiosulfate: cyanide sulfurtransferase, EC 2.8.1.1), a nuclearly encoded protein of the mitochondrial matrix, was isolated from a human fetal liver cDNA library. Nucleotide sequence revealed an open reading frame coding for a polypeptide of 295 amino acids, which presented a 57% and 58% identity with the bovine and avian rhodanese, respectively. The analysis of the 5'-ends of the coding region gave no evidence for the presence of a cleavable signal sequence as found in other mitochondrial proteins. A comparison with two available amino acid sequences (cow and chicken) showed that sequence similarity is not restricted to the alpha-helices and beta-structures motifs which are remarkably superimposable in the two halves of bovine rhodanese, but extends to adjacent regions. 相似文献

We have identified and sequenced a cDNA that encodes an apparent human orthologue of a yeast protein-X component (ScPDX1) of pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes. The new human cDNA that has been referred to as "HsPDX1" cDNA was cloned by use of the "database cloning" strategy and had a 1,506-bp open reading frame. The amino acid sequence of the protein encoded by the cDNA was 20% identical with that encoded by the yeast PDX1 gene and 40% identical with that encoded by the lipoate acetyltransferase component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase and included a lipoyl-bearing domain that is conserved in some dehydrogenase enzyme complexes. Northern blot analysis demonstrated that the major HsPDX1 mRNA was 2.5 kb in length and was expressed mainly in human skeletal and cardiac muscles but was also present, at low levels, in other tissues. FISH analysis performed with a P1-derived artificial chromosome (PAC)-containing HsPDX1 gene sublocalized the gene to 11p1.3. Molecular investigation of PDX1 deficiency in four patients with neonatal lactic acidemias revealed mutations 78del85 and 965del59 in a homozygous state, and one other patient had no PDX1 mRNA expression. 相似文献

Abstract: The cDNA for a murine galactocerebrosidase was isolated from a murine testis cDNA library on the basis of its homology with the cDNA for human galactocerebrosidase and a PCR method was used to clone the 5′ end. It has a 2,278-nucleotide sequence including a 2,004-nucleotide open reading frame, which encodes 668 amino acid residues. The identity between the human and murine amino acid sequences was very high, being calculated to be 84%. Sequencing of cDNA from liver of the twitcher mouse revealed a nonsense mutation at codon 339 (TGG → TGA). The most abundant mRNA of the murine galactocerebrosidase gave a 3.6-kb band, which was not detected in twitcher mice. This suggests that the cDNA (2,278 bp) we characterized represents a minor species generated by an alternate poly(A) signal and that most of the mRNA has a much longer 3′-untranslated region. Genome analysis revealed that this mutation was homozygous in the twitcher and heterozygous in the carrier but was not present in normal mice. The normal mouse cDNA but not the mutant cDNA of the galactocerebrosidase transfected into COS1 cells gave rise to an increase in enzymatic activity. We concluded that this mutation results in the deficiency of galactocerebrosidase in the twitcher mouse. 相似文献

The ubiquinone-binding protein (QP-C) is a nuclear-encoded component of ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase in the mitochondrial respiratory chain and plays an important role in electron transfer as a ubiquinone-QP-C complex. We obtained a partial cDNA for rat liver QP-C by screening a lambda gt11 rat liver cDNA library using antiserum directed against bovine heart QP-C. Using this cDNA as a probe, a cDNA clone was isolated from a human fibroblast cDNA library by colony hybridization. The total length of the cloned cDNA was 518 base pairs with an open reading frame of 333 base pairs. The 111-amino acid sequence deduced from the nucleotide sequence of the cDNA is 85% homologous to that of bovine QP-C and contains only a single additional amino-terminal methionine. This implies that the human QP-C is synthesized without a presequence which is required for import of most nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins into mitochondria. 相似文献

In a previous paper, we reported identification of the 5' part of hprA of Methylobacterium extorquens AM1, which encodes the serine cycle enzyme hydroxypyruvate reductase (L. V. Chistoserdova and M. E. Lidstrom, J. Bacteriol. 174:71-77, 1992). Here we present the complete sequence of hprA and partial sequence of genes adjacent to hprA. Upstream of hprA, the 3' part of an open reading frame was discovered, separated from hprA by 263 bp. This open reading frame was identified as the gene encoding another serine cycle enzyme, serine glyoxylate aminotransferase (sgaA). Cells containing an insertion mutation into sgaA were unable to grow on C1 compounds, demonstrating that the gene is required for C1 metabolism. Sequencing downstream of hprA has revealed the presence of another open reading frame (mtdA), which is probably cotranscribed with hprA. This open reading frame was identified as the gene required for the synthesis of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase. Our data suggest that this enzyme plays an integral role in methylotrophic metabolism in M. extorquens AM1, either in formaldehyde oxidation or as part of the serine cycle. 相似文献

Nucleotide sequence of a cDNA for branched chain acyltransferase with analysis of the deduced protein structure 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Nucleotide sequence was determined for a 1.6-kilobase human cDNA putative for the branched chain acyltransferase protein of the branched chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex. Translation of the sequence reveals an open reading frame encoding a 315-amino acid protein of molecular weight 35,759 followed by 560 bases of 3'-untranslated sequence. Three repeats of the polyadenylation signal hexamer ATTAAA are present prior to the polyadenylate tail. Within the open reading frame is a 10-amino acid fragment which matches exactly the amino acid sequence around the lipoate-lysine residue in bovine kidney branched chain acyltransferase, thus confirming the identity of the cDNA. Analysis of the deduced protein structure for the human branched chain acyltransferase revealed an organization into domains similar to that reported for the acyltransferase proteins of the pyruvate and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complexes. This similarity in organization suggests that a more detailed analysis of the proteins will be required to explain the individual substrate and multienzyme complex specificity shown by these acyltransferases. 相似文献

The transduction of a human placental cDNA retroviral library into glyB cells, a Chinese hamster ovary K1 subline that is deficient in the transport of folates into mitochondria, resulted in the complementation of glycine auxotrophy of these cells. A 2.6-kilobase pair cDNA insert flanked by retroviral sequences had integrated into genomic DNA in rescued cells. An open reading frame in this cDNA encoded a 35-kDa protein homologous to several inner mitochondrial wall transporters for intermediate metabolites. The subcloned cDNA complemented the glycine auxotrophy of glyB cells and reinstated folate accumulation in the mitochondria of transfected cells. The human origin, chromosomal location, and intron-exon organization of the isolated mitochondrial folate transporter gene were deduced from the expressed sequence tag database and human genome project data. 相似文献

A combination of protein kinase A type II (RII) overlay screening, database searches and PCR was used to identify a centrosomal A-kinase anchoring protein. A cDNA with an 11.7 kb open reading frame was characterized and found to correspond to 50 exons of genomic sequence on human chromosome 7q21-22. This cDNA clone encoded a 3908 amino acid protein of 453 kDa, that was designated AKAP450 (DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank accession No. AJ131693). Sequence comparison demonstrated that the open reading frame contained a previously characterized cDNA encoding Yotiao, as well as the human homologue of AKAP120. Numerous coiled-coil structures were predicted from AKAP450, and weak homology to pericentrin, giantin and other structural proteins was observed. A putative RII-binding site was identified involving amino acid 2556 of AKAP450 by mutation analysis combined with RII overlay and an amphipatic helix was predicted in this region. Immunoprecipitation of RII from RIPA-buffer extracts of HeLa cells demonstrated co-precipitation of AKAP450. By immunofluorecent labeling with specific antibodies it was demonstrated that AKAP450 localized to centrosomes. Furthermore, AKAP450 was shown to co-purify in centrosomal preparations. The observation of two mRNAs and several splice products suggests additional functions for the AKAP450 gene. 相似文献

Analysis of two gene regions involved in the expression of the imipenem-specific, outer membrane porin protein OprD of Pseudomonas aeruginosa 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

A Tn501 mutant of Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistant to imipenem and lacking the imipenem-specific outer membrane porin protein OprD was isolated. The mutation could be complemented to imipenem susceptibility and OprD-sufficiency by a cloned 6-kb EcoRI-PstI fragment of DNA from the region of chromosome of the wild-type strain surrounding the site of Tn501 insertion. However, this fragment did not contain the oprD structural gene as judged by its inability to hybridize with an oligonucleotide corresponding to the N-terminal amino acid sequence of OprD. DNA sequencing of 3.9 kb of the region surrounding the Tn501 insertion site revealed three large open reading frames, one of which would be interrupted by the Tn501 insertion in the mutant. This latter open reading frame, named opdE (for putative regulator of oprD expression), predicted a hydrophobic protein of M(r) 41,592. Using the above-mentioned oligonucleotide, the oprD structural gene was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli on a 2.1-kb Bam HI-KpnI fragment. DNA sequencing predicted a 420 amino acid mature OprD protein with a 23 amino acid signal sequence. 相似文献

A full length cDNA clone of the alpha subunit of mitochondrial ATP synthase (EC 3.6.1.34) has been isolated from a cDNA library prepared from LX-1 human tumor cells in the lambda-Zap vector. The clone is 1883 base pairs (bp) in length and contains a 1659 bp open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 553 residues. The deduced amino acid sequence is highly homologous to ATP synthase from several other species. 相似文献

Polyspecific antibody to a 17 amino acid synthetic peptide from the maize T-cytoplasm urf13-T mitochondrial open reading frame immunoprecipitated a 13 kD polypeptide from 35S-methionine incorporations of T cytoplasm maize. Male-fertile, toxin-insensitive mutants in which the urf13-T sequence is deleted do not synthesize the 13 kD polypeptide. A mutant designated T-4, which carries a 5 bp insertion and a premature stop codon, synthesizes a truncated polypeptide, corresponding to an open reading frame of 8.3 kD. Thus the 13 kD polypeptide is trunctated or absent in mutants expressing male fertility and toxin insensitivity in T-cytoplasm maize.USDA-ARS 相似文献
