The primary structure of human gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
A cDNA hybridizable to that of rat gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) was cloned from a cDNA library of human fetal liver. The insert of the cDNA clone contained 1866 bp consisting of an open reading frame (ORF) of 1709 bp (569 amino acids (aa), N-terminal portion truncated) and a 135-bp 3'-untranslated region followed by a polyadenylated tail. In parallel, amino acid sequences of N-terminal portions of heavy and light chains of a purified human GGT were determined. Two stretches of amino acid sequences identical to the N-terminal sequences of heavy and light chains were found in the ORF. We therefore concluded that the clone is a cDNA for human GGT. From the amino acid sequence deduced from cDNA, the heavy and the light chains of the purified enzyme are estimated to be composed of 351 aa (Mr 38,336) and of 189 aa (Mr 20,000), respectively. The heavy chain is preceded by a signal peptide of at least 29 aa presumed to be cleaved by bromelain treatment. Six putative N-glycosylation sites are present in the heavy subunit region and one in the light subunit region. Primary structure and hydrophobicity profile are closely similar to those of rat GGT.  相似文献

Lipocortins (LC) are a family of proteins that were initially described to be induced by glucocorticosteroids and to inhibit phospholipase A2 (PLA2). Using oligodeoxynucleotide probes corresponding to partial amino acid (aa) sequences of rat lipocortin I (LCI), we have isolated a cDNA clone for rat LCI from a cDNA library prepared from poly(A)+RNA of peritoneal cells of dexamethasone-treated rat. The cDNA insert (1355 bp) had an open reading frame of 1038 bp that encoded a 346-aa polypeptide (Mr 38,784). The nucleotide sequence and the amino acid sequence deduced from it showed high homology with the reported sequences of human LCI. A plasmid containing the trc promoter and cDNA sequence for 346 aa residues of the rat LCI was constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli. Antibody to human LCI crossreacted with the recombinant rat LCI, and the recombinant protein had characteristics of natural rat LCI including PLA2 inhibitory activity in vitro.  相似文献

Sequence of human DNA polymerase beta mRNA obtained through cDNA cloning   总被引:29,自引:0,他引:29  
A cDNA library from polyA+ RNA of a human teratocarcinoma cell line in phage lambda gt11 was screened with a fragment of the rat beta-polymerase cDNA, lambda pol beta-10, as probe. Five positive phage were identified and plaque purified. The cDNA of one positive clone selected for detailed study was 1257 bp. This insert was sequenced and found to contain the coding region for beta-polymerase, as well as 163 bp and 137 bp from the 5' and 3' untranslated regions, respectively. The primary structure of human beta-polymerase (318 amino acids, Mr = 36, 133) deduced from the cDNA was similar to rat beta-polymerase (95% matched residues). The greatest difference between the sequences of the human and rat cDNAs was in the 3' untranslated regions (64% matched base residues). These results provide necessary sequence information for study of the human beta-polymerase gene.  相似文献

The steady-state mRNA concentrations of two fcp genes encoding fucoxanthin chlorophyll a/c light-harvesting polypeptides of the centric diatom Cyclotella cryptica were investigated over a 4-day period by RNA dot-blotting experiments. Before and during the first day of the experiment, the cultures were grown under a 12-h light/12-h dark regime. On the following 3 days, the algae were kept in darkness. On the first day, the steady-state mRNA concentration of fcp2 followed a diurnal pattern, with a maximum occurring around noon, approximately 6 h after the onset of light. The gene fcp6 also had a diurnal pattern on the first day. Its maximum, however, occurred immediately after the onset of light. During the subsequent incubation period in darkness, the diurnal pattern of expression of both fcp genes continued, thus demonstrating that their steady-state mRNA concentrations oscillated in a circadian manner.  相似文献

A mixture of 14-mer oligodeoxynucleotides was used for the screening of a cDNA clone coding for a cholecystokinin (CCK) precursor from a cDNA library for rat brain microsomal poly(A)RNA. The longest insert is 718 bp long which was verified to contain a nearly full-length cDNA sequence coding for rat CCK precursor, because the size of CCK mRNA was estimated to be about 850 bases long by Northern blotting analysis. Sequence analysis revealed 110 bp in the 5'-untranslated region, 345 bp in the amino acid coding region corresponding to the CCK precursor and 263 bp in the 3'-noncoding region which contains polyadenylation signal AUUAAA and the poly(A) sequence. The precursor may contain a 28 amino acid signal peptide and 12 additional amino acids at the carboxyl terminus.  相似文献

A tissue-specific cDNA library was constructed using polyA+ RNA from pituitary glands of the Indian catfishHeteropneustes fossilis (Bloch) and a cDNA clone encoding growth hormone (GH) was isolated. Using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers representing the conserved regions of fish GH sequences the 3′ region of catfish GH cDNA (540 bp) was cloned by random amplification of cDNA ends and the clone was used as a probe to isolate recombinant phages carrying the full-length cDNA sequence. The full-length cDNA clone is 1132 bp in length, coding for an open reading frame (ORF) of 603 bp; the reading frame encodes a putative polypeptide of 200 amino acids including the signal sequence of 22 amino acids. The 5′ and 3′ untranslated regions of the cDNA are 58 bp and 456 bp long, respectively. The predicted amino acid sequence ofH. fossils GH shared 98% homology with other catfishes. Mature GH protein was efficiently expressed in bacterial and zebrafish systems using appropriate expression vectors. The successful expression of the cloned GH cDNA of catfish confirms the functional viability of the clone.  相似文献

Human adenosine deaminase. cDNA and complete primary amino acid sequence   总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20  
A previously cloned partial adenosine deaminase cDNA insert (0.8 kilobase) was used to clone additional nucleotide sequences from human HPB ALL cDNA libraries. cDNA encompassing the entire coding, and 3'-untranslated regions as well as nearly all of the 5'-untranslated region was obtained. The complete amino acid sequence of the enzyme deduced from the cDNA sequence and protein sequencing consists of 362 amino acids, excluding the initiator Met, and accounts for Mr = 40,638. Secondary structure predictions assign adenosine deaminase to the alpha/beta class of proteins. Northern blot analysis with a cDNA probe showed adenosine deaminase mRNA to be present in normal to above normal amounts in B-lymphoblasts derived from adenosine deaminase-deficient patients with severe combined immunodeficiency disease. Knowledge of the cDNA and primary amino acid sequence of adenosine deaminase will be pivotal in further defining the genetic abnormality and its functional consequences in adenosine deaminase expression defects.  相似文献

A gene OsZnI encoding Cys3/His1-type zinc finger protein was isolated from the water stress-induced cDNA library of rice (Oryza sativa) cv. N-22, an early maturing, deep-rooted, drought-tolerant genotype adapted to upland conditions. The in-silico analysis revealed an insert of 800 bp with an ORF of 663 nucleotides, encoding 221 amino acids. OsZnI had three distinct features--nuclear localization signal (NLS) present in Arg152-Arg168, Zn finger domain between 185-193 amino acids and 12 amino acids conserved domain in 71-82 amino acids homologous to LEA motif, and belonged to C-type family of Zn finger protein. OsZnI showed induced expression under water deficit stress.  相似文献

A cDNA expression library from pig blood neutrophils was immunoscreened with a rabbit antiserum raised against a 32 kDa neutrophil membrane phosphoprotein. Previous work indicated this protein as a component of the superoxide-forming NADPH oxidase enzyme complex (1,2). Only one cDNA clone (B+) was highly positive. The B+ clone contained a 1109 bp insert, with an open reading frame encoding for 284 amino acids. The deduced B+ amino acid sequence contained a 72 amino acid domain with proline and glutamine repeats and two domains extremely enriched with serine residues. The isolated cDNA hybridizes with a 3.1 kb mRNA expressed in pig and human leukocytes.  相似文献

We have sequenced a cDNA clone, pLgSSU, which encodes the small subunit of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase of Lemna gibba L.G-3 a monocot plant. This clone contains a 832 basepair insert which encodes the entire 120 amino acids of the mature small subunit polypeptide (Mr = 14,127). In addition this clone encodes 53 amino acids of the amino terminal transit peptide of the precursor polypeptide and 242 nucleotides of the 3' non-coding region. Comparison of the nucleotide sequence of pLgSSU with Lemna gibba genomic sequences homologous to the 5' end of the cDNA clone suggests that nucleotides encoding four amino-terminal amino acids of the transit peptide are not included in the cDNA clone. The deduced amino acid sequence of the Lemna gibba mature small subunit polypeptide shows 70-75% homology to the reported sequences of other species. The transit peptide amino acid sequence shows less homology to other species. There is 50% homology to the reported soybean sequence and only 25% homology to the transit sequence of another monocot, wheat.  相似文献
