An S-receptor kinase (SRK) gene associated with self-incompatibility in a Brassica napus subsp. oleifera line has been characterized. The SRK-A14 cDNA shows the highest levels of homology in the 5 end to the SLG-A14 cDNA present at the same locus. RNA blot analysis shows that the SRK-A14 gene is expressed predominantly in the pistil, and at lower levels in the anthers. The predicted amino acid sequences from the extracellular domain of the SRK-A14 gene and three other SRK genes were compared. The different SRK extracellular domains were for the most part very similar, with the exception of two variable regions containing a high level of amino acid alterations. These extracellular domains also contain a region of similarity to the immunoglobulin domains present in members of the immunoglobulin superfamily. These findings may define regions of the SRK protein that are necessary for interactions between SRK and other proteins. 相似文献

While the molecular basis of sporophytic self-incompatibility (SSI) has been investigated extensively in the Brassicaceae, almost nothing is known about the molecular regulation of SSI in other families, such as the Asteraceae. In species of Brassica and in Arabidopsis lyrata, a stigma-specific serine-threonine receptor kinase (SRK) and its cognate ligand, a pollen coating-borne cysteine-rich protein (SCR/SP11), determine the female and male sides of the SSI response, respectively. Here we have used RT-PCR with degenerate primers to conserved regions of SRK to amplify three SRK-like gene fragments expressed in stigmas of Senecio squalidus (Asteraceae). The Senecio S-receptor-like kinase (SSRLK) sequences share ~43% amino acid sequence identity with Brassica SRK3 but higher amino acid sequence identity (~50%) with two Solanum bulbocastanum receptor-like kinase genes of unknown function. Despite expression in stigmas, all three SSRLKs were expressed at varying levels in floral and vegetative tissues. No allelic polymorphism was detected for the three SSRLKs in two S homozygous lines of S. squalidus or three other lines of S. squalidus carrying different S alleles. A full-length cDNA clone was obtained for SSRLK1 and its predicted amino acid sequence revealed significant structural differences to Brassica SRKs, most notably a major N-terminal truncation of 169 amino acids and the presence of just 8 conserved cysteine residues within the putative receptor domain instead of 12. Together, the sequence characteristics and expression characteristics of SSRLKs suggest that they are unlikely to be directly involved in the SSI response of S. squalidus. These findings are discussed in terms of the evolution of the SRK multigene family and the molecular basis of SSI in S. squalidus and the Asteraceae. 相似文献

The nucleotide sequences of ten SP11 and nine SRK alleles in Raphanus sativus were determined, and deduced amino acid sequences were compared with those of Brassica SP11 and SRK. The amino acid sequence identity of class-I SP11s in R. sativus was about 30% on average, the highest being 52.2%, while that of the S domain of class-I SRK was 77.0% on average and ranged from 70.8% to 83.9%. These values were comparable to those of SP11 and SRK in Brassica oleracea and B. rapa. SP11 of R. sativus S-21 was found to be highly similar to SP11 of B. rapa S-9 (89.5% amino acid identity), and SRK of R. sativus S-21 was similar to SRK of B. rapa S-9 (91.0%). SP11 and SRK of R. sativus S-19 were also similar to SP11 and SRK of B. oleracea S-20, respectively. These similarities of both SP11 and SRK alleles between R. sativus and Brassica suggest that these S haplotype pairs originated from the same ancestral S haplotypes. 相似文献

Two varieties of similar, but structurally distinct, cDNA clones for the human low-affinity receptors for the Fc portion of
immunoglobulin G (FcγRII) have been isolated. One type of clone was obtained from human B lymphocytes, and the other from
PHA-activated peripheral T cells and monocytes. Transfection of both prototype clones into Cos-7 cells and subsequent specific
staining with monoclonal antibodies of the CDw32 group confirmed the identification of the gene products. The nucleotide sequence
of the cDNA clone from B lymphocytes contains an open reading frame that encodes a protein of relative mass (M
r) 27000 with an extracellular domain of 179 amino acids containing three potential N-glycosylation sites, a 26 amino acid
transmembrane domain, and a 44 amino acid cytoplasmic domain. The clones from peripheral T cells and monocytes both encoded
a protein ofM
r 31000 with a 179 amino acid extracellular domain containing two potential N-glycosylation sites and a 26 amino acid transmembrane
domain. The two types of clones had similar sequences in their immunoglobulin-like extracellular and transmembrane domains,
but differed in their leader sequences and 3′-untranslated regions. The most notable difference between the clones was the
presence of a distinctive 76 amino acid cytoplasmic domain in those isolated from T cells and monocytes. 相似文献

The S locus, which controls the self-incompatibility response in Brassica, has been shown to contain at least two genes. SLG encodes a secreted S locus glycoprotein whilst SRK encodes a putative S locus receptor kinase. SRK has been shown potentially to encode a functional kinase and genetic evidence indicates that this gene is essential for the self-incompatibility response. Here the characterization of the SRK and SLG genes of a Brassica line homozygous for the S3 haplotype is described. A 120 kDa glycoprotein was identified in stigmas and several lines of evidence indicated that this protein is encoded by the SRK3 gene. First, the 120 kDa glycoprotein was recognized by antibodies raised against peptides based on the SRK3 gene sequence. Secondly, this protein is polymorphic and, in an F2 population segregating for the S3 haplotype, was expressed only in plants possessing the S3 haplotype. Thirdly, the 120 kDa protein was expressed specifically in stigmas. Finally, the 120 kDa protein was only extracted from stigmas in the presence of detergent indicating that it is anchored in the membrane. SRK has been predicted to encode a transmembrane glycoprotein based on the deduced amino acid sequence. Located on the membrane, SRK is in a position to interface between an extracellular recognition event between pollen and pistil and an intracellular signal transduction pathway which initiates the self-incompatibility response. 相似文献

Lymphocyte function-associated antigen 3 (LFA-3) is a widely distributed cell surface glycoprotein that has been assigned a role in cell-cell adhesion on the basis of its capacity to bind to the T-lymphocyte CD2 antigen. The amino acid sequences of the extracellular domains of these two antigens, predicted from their cDNA sequences, show significant similarities, and both are members of the immunoglobulin supergene family. In this communication, a probe prepared from LFA-3 cDNA has been used in Southern blot analyses of somatic cell hybrids and in in situ hybridization to assign the LFA-3 gene to the human chromosome band 1p13. This is the same location previously assigned to CD2. Thus the LFA-3 and CD2 genes have probably arisen by duplication of a common evolutionary precursor. These genes therefore represent a further instance in which related members of the immunoglobulin superfamily are located in adjacent regions of the genome. 相似文献

Self-incompatibility (SI) in Brassica is controlled by a single locus, termed the S locus. There is evidence that two of the S locus genes, SLG, which encodes a secreted glycoprotein, and SRK, which encodes a putative receptor kinase, are required for SI on the stigma side. The current model postulates that a pollen ligand recognizing the SLG/SRK receptors is encoded in the genomic region defined by the SLG and SRK genes. A fosmid contig of approximately 65 kb spanning the SLG-910 and SRK-910 genes was isolated from the Brassica napus W1 line. A new gene, SLL3, was identified using a novel approach combining cDNA subtraction and direct selection. This gene encodes a putative secreted small peptide and exists as multiple copies in the Brassica genome. Sequencing analysis of the 65-kb contig revealed seven additional genes and a transposon. None of these seven genes exhibited features expected of S genes on the pollen side. An approximately 88-kb contig of the A14 S region also was isolated from the B. napus T2 line and sequenced. Comparison of the two S regions revealed that (1) the gene organization downstream of SLG in both S haplotypes is highly colinear; (2) the distance between SLG-A14 and SRK-A14 genes is much larger than that between SLG-910 and SRK-910, with the intervening region filled with retroelements and haplotype-specific genes; and (3) the gene organization downstream of SRK in the two haplotypes is divergent. These observations lead us to propose that the SLG downstream region might be one border of the S locus and that the accumulation of heteromorphic sequences, such as retroelements as well as haplotype-unique genes, may act as a mechanism to suppress recombination between SLG and SRK. 相似文献

CD84 is a member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily (IgSF) with two Ig-like domains expressed primarily on B lymphocytes
and macrophages. Here we describe the cloning of the mouse homologue of human CD84. Mouse CD84 cDNA clones were isolated from
a macrophage library. The nucleotide sequence of mouse CD84 was shown to include an open reading frame encoding a putative
329 amino acid protein composed of a 21 amino acid leader peptide, two extracellular immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains, a hydrophobic
transmembrane region, and an 87 amino acid cytoplasmic domain. Mouse CD84 shares 57.3% amino acid sequence identity (88.7%,
considering conservative amino acid substitutions) with the human homologue. Chromosome localization studies mapped the mouse
CD84 gene to distal chromosome 1 adjacent to the gene for Ly-9, placing it close to the region where other members of the CD2 IgSF (CD48 and 2B4) have been mapped. Northern blot analysis revealed that the expression of mouse CD84 was predominantly restricted to hematopoietic
tissues. Two species of mRNA of 3.6 kilobases (kb) and 1.5 kb were observed. The finding that the pattern of expression was
restricted to the hematopoietic system and the conserved sequence of the mouse CD84 homologue suggests that the function of
the CD84 glycoprotein may be similar in humans and mice.

xynB is one of at least four genes from the cellulolytic rumen anaerobe Ruminococcus flavefaciens 17 that encode xylanase activity. The xynB gene is predicted to encode a 781-amino acid product starting with a signal peptide, followed by an amino-terminal xylanase domain which is identical at 89% and 78% of residues, respectively, to the amino-terminal xylanase domains of the bifunctional XynD and XynA enzymes from the same organism. Two separate regions within the carboxy-terminal 537 amino acids of XynB also show close similarities with domain B of XynD. These regions show no significant homology with cellulose- or xylan-binding domains from other species, or with any other sequences, and their functions are unknown. In addition a 30 to 32-residue threonine-rich region is present in both XynD and XynB. Codon usage shows a consistent pattern of bias in the three xylanase genes from R. flavefaciens that have been sequenced. 相似文献

The amino acid sequences of human carcinoembryonic antigen deduced from the cDNA sequences have been analysed. This antigen contains seven extracellular domains (previously recognized three highly repetitive domains are further divided into A and B subdomains each) which are strikingly homologous to each other and to immunoglobulin variable regions, poly-Ig receptor and Thy 1.1. The N-terminal domain lacks immunoglobulin-like fold but the other six domains have, suggesting that the CEA belongs to immunoglobulin superfamily. 相似文献

The lac1 gene encoding an extracellular laccase was isolated from the thermophilic fungus Melanocarpus albomyces. This gene has five introns, and it encodes a protein consisting of 623 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of the laccase was shown to have high homology with laccases from other ascomycetes. In addition to removal of a putative 22-amino-acid signal sequence and a 28-residue propeptide, maturation of the translation product of lac1 was shown to involve cleavage of a C-terminal 14-amino-acid extension. M. albomyces lac1 cDNA was expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae under the inducible GAL1 promoter. Extremely low production was obtained with the expression construct containing laccase cDNA with its own signal and propeptide sequences. The activity levels were significantly improved by replacing these sequences with the prepro sequence of the S. cerevisiae α-factor gene. The role of the C-terminal extension in laccase production in S. cerevisiae was also studied. Laccase production was increased sixfold with the modified cDNA that had a stop codon after the native processing site at the C terminus. 相似文献

Full length cDNA clones encoding the mouse Fc gamma RI were isolated by using redundant oligonucleotide probes based on previously determined amino acid sequence of protein bound to an IgG2a antibody column. Sequence analysis of cDNA clones indicates that mouse Fc gamma RI is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is composed of three disulfide bonded extracellular Ig binding domains unlike Fc gamma RII of man and mouse. These extracellular domains contain five potential sites of N-linked glycosylation; three sites in the first domain and one in each of the second and third domains. In addition a transmembrane region is present followed by a cytoplasmic tail of 84 amino acids. Analysis of the amino acid sequence of the first two extracellular domains of Fc gamma RI indicate that these are highly homologous to the extracellular domains of Fc gamma RII; the third domain is different and shows a lower level of homology to other FcR domains but is clearly related to the Ig super-family. Transfected cells expressing Fc gamma RI were shown to bind immune complexes of rabbit IgG; and monomeric IgG2a bound to transiently transfected cells with an affinity of approximately 5 x 10(7) M-1, i.e. the receptor was of high affinity and therefore was by definition Fc gamma RI. Northern analysis demonstrated that Fc gamma RI mRNA could be detected in the Fc gamma RI+ myeloid cell lines WEH1 3B and J774. Finally, Southern analysis indicated that Fc gamma RI is likely to be encoded by a single copy gene of approximately 9 kb. 相似文献
