The primary structure of a plant storage protein: zein.   总被引:16,自引:5,他引:11       下载免费PDF全文
The protein sequence of a representative of the zeins, the major storage proteins of maize, has been derived from the nucleotide sequence of a zein cDNA clone. This cDNA was sequence both by the Maxam and Gilbert and the M13-dideoxy techniques. The nucleotide sequence encompasses the non-translated 3' terminus of the mRNA, the entire coding sequence specifying both the mature zein protein and a small signal peptide, and a portion of the non-translated 5' region. The deduced amino acid composition and the amino-terminal amino acid sequence closely resemble those derived from chemical analysis of the zein protein fraction. The data presented represent the first complete amino acid sequence of a plant storage protein.  相似文献

The gene for the human glandular kallikrein, prostate-specific antigen, has been cloned. The sequence of 7130 nucleotides encompassing the gene and 633 bp of 5' and 639 bp of 3' flanking DNA has been determined. The translation initiation site was slightly heterogeneous, yielding 5' non-translated leader sequences of 41 and 35 bp. The gene is divided into five exons, with introns located at positions identical with those found in other glandular kallikrein genes. The nucleotide sequence is very similar to that of the human kallikrein gene hGK-1, with 76 to 93% of the nucleotides being identical in the exons and 76 to 87% in the introns. The similarity also extends approximately 200 bp into the sequence flanking the 5' end of hGK-1 and several other, both human and rodent, glandular kallikrein genes.  相似文献

研究高等生物基因表达与调控的一个重要方面是分离基因的编码区及其上游的调控序列(DeVeer等1997),这需要获得一个基因的cDNA全长及从植物基因组获取全基因。在前文(周建明等1999)中曾经分离了稻瘟病菌侵染诱导的水稻早期反应基因ER1的cDNA片段,但是运用mRNA差异显示技术分离的cDNA片段往往只有近mRNA3’端的一部分,难以反映基因的结构及功能特点,因此,必须进一步分离其5’端的部分才有可能比较全面地了解此基因的特点。RACE(rapidamplificationofcDNAen…  相似文献

The cDNA clone encoding human prechymotrypsinogen was isolated from a human pancreas cDNA library and its nucleotide sequence was determined. The sequence consists of a 16 bp 5' non-coding region, a 789 bp amino acid coding region and a 60 bp 3' non-coding region. The predicted product consists of 263 amino acids, including 18 amino acids for a signal peptide and 15 amino acids possible for an activation peptide. Southern blot analyses using the cloned cDNA as a probe revealed that human genomic DNA carries at least two genes that are related to chymotrypsinogen.  相似文献

The complete sequence of orange homologous capsanthin/capsorubin synthase gene is 3788 bp long with a coding sequence of 1512 bp, which encodes a polypeptide of 503 amino acids. The 5' upstream sequence is 1721 bp long and the 3' downstream sequence is 555 bp long. The amino acid sequence of this gene is 78% and 69% identical to the genes from carrot and pepper, respectively. It is also partially homologous to plant neoxanthin synthase, lycopene beta-cyclase and lycopene epsilon cyclase genes. Isolation of the gene provides a framework for elucidation of the mechanisms involved in inability of citrus to produce capsanthin and capsorubin.  相似文献

A full length cDNA for human M creatine kinase has been isolated and sequenced. The cDNA contains 77 bp of 5' untranslated, 338 bp of 3' untranslated sequence and the entire coding region (1146 bp) for human M creatine kinase. The M creatine kinases from different species share considerable sequence homology within the coding region (77-91%) and in amino acid sequence (82-97%). Little or no sequence homology is observed in the 3' untranslated sequence of the mammalian M creatine kinases, although canine and human creatine kinase share overall 80% sequence homology in 5' untranslated sequence. A unique 8 bp sequence was identified in the 5' untranslated regions of mammalian M creatine kinase but is not present in B creatine kinase cDNA. The degree of sequence conservation observed implies an evolutionary constraint on M creatine kinase structure beyond that which would be expected for the maintenance of enzymatic function.  相似文献

Isolation and sequencing of mouse angiogenin DNA   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The mouse genomic DNA for angiogenin, a potent blood vessel inducing protein, has been isolated from a bacteriophage library using the human angiogenin gene as a probe. The 1129 bp fragment contains 499 bp in the 5' flanking region, 192 bp in the 3' flanking region, and 438 bp coding for the mature protein (121 amino acids) and signal peptide (24 amino acids). Potential TATA box and AATAAA polyadenylation sequences are present, and a consensus sequence for an intron 3' boundary occurs 16 bp upstream of the Met-(24) codon, suggesting the presence of an intron in the 5' region. The protein sequence inferred from the DNA is 76% identical to that of human angiogenin, and matches the sequences obtained previously from tryptic peptides of a serum-derived mouse angiogenin. The critical catalytic residues of human angiogenin are conserved in the mouse protein, as are the six cysteines necessary for disulfide bond formation.  相似文献

The cDNA and protein sequences of human lactate dehydrogenase B.   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9       下载免费PDF全文
Human lactate dehydrogenase B (LDH-B) cDNA was isolated and sequenced. The LDH-B cDNA insert consists of the protein-coding sequence (999 bp), the 5' (54 bp) and 3' (203 bp) non-coding regions, and the poly(A) tail (50 bp). The predicted sequence of 333 amino acid residues was confirmed by amino acid composition and/or sequence analyses of a total of 185 (56%) residues from tryptic peptides of human LDH-B protein. The nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the human LDH-B coding region show 68% and 75% homologies respectively with those of the human LDH-A. The peptide map and amino acid composition data have been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50139 (7 pages) at the British Library Lending Division, Boston Spa, Wetherby, West Yorkshire LS23 7BQ, U.K., from whom copies are available on prepayment [see Biochem.

Abstract The gene encoding an 18 kDa fimbrial subunit of Vibrio cholerae O1 was identified in a fimbriate strain Bgd17. Mixed oligoprimers were prepared based on the amino acid sequence of the N-terminus and that from a cyanogen bromide-cleaved fragment of the fimbrillin. A PCR-amplified 185 bp DNA fragment was sequenced. This 185 bp fragment was further extended to 540 bp to 3' and 5' termini by RNA-PCR using a primer containing a random hexamer at its 3' end. This fragment did not contain the stop codons. It was further extended by a gene walking method using Eco RI cassette and its primers. Finally a 660 bp fragment was obtained and sequenced. This fragment contained the complete open reading frame of the structural subunit of the fimbriae, composed of 169 amino acids with a molecular mass of 17435.65 and a leader sequence of 6 or 9 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of the polypeptide encoded by the gene, designated fim A, displayed a highly conserved sequence of MKXXXGFTLI EL of type 4 fimbriae.  相似文献

A cDNA clone encoding glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) was identified that consisted of 34 bp of 5' untranslated sequence, an open reading frame of 432 bp and 115 bp in the 3' untranslated region. The deduced amino acid sequence revealed a 144 amino acid preprohormone consisting of a 43 amino acid N-terminal extension including a signal peptide, a 42 amino acid hormone, and a 59 amino acid C-terminal extension. Rat GIP differs from the human hormone by two amino acid substitutions: arginine for histidine at position 18 and leucine for isoleucine at position 40. A single mRNA from small intestine of approximately 800 bases was identified on Northern blot analysis in equivalent amounts in proximal and distal small intestine.  相似文献

The nucleotide sequences coding for murine complement component C3 have been determined from a cloned genomic DNA fragment and several overlapping cloned complementary DNA fragments. The amino acid sequence of the protein was deduced. The mature beta and alpha subunits contain 642 and 993 amino acids respectively. Including a 24 amino acid signal peptide and four arginines in the beta-alpha transition region, which are probably not contained in the mature protein, the unglycosylated single chain precursor protein preproC3 would have a molecular mass of 186 484 Da and consist of 1663 amino acid residues. The C3 messenger RNA would be composed of a 56 +/- 2 nucleotide long 5' non-translated region, 4992 nucleotides of coding sequence, and a 3' non-translated region of 39 nucleotides, excluding the poly A tail. The beta chain contains only three cysteine residues, the alpha chain 24, ten of which are clustered in the carboxy terminal stretch of 175 amino acids. Two potential carbohydrate attachment sites are predicted for the alpha chain, none for the beta chain. From a comparison with human C3 cDNA sequence (of which over 80% has been determined) an extensive overall sequence homology was observed. Human and murine preproC3 would be of very similar length and share several noteworthy properties: the same order of the subunits in the precursor, the same basic residue multiplet in the beta-alpha transition region, and a glutamine residue in the thioester region. The equivalent position of the known factor I cleavage sites in human C3 alpha could be located in the murine C3 alpha chain and the size and sequence of the resulting peptide were deduced. A comparison of the amino acid sequences of murine C3 and human alpha 2-macroglobulin is given. Several areas of strong sequence homology are observed, and we conclude that the two genes must have evolved from a common ancestor.  相似文献

We have isolated and sequenced a cloned complementary DNA insert complementary to the messenger RNA of a cytoplasmic actin expressed in human epidermal cells. This provides the first cytoplasmic actin complementary DNA sequence for a vertebrate organism. The actin amino acid sequence predicted from this complementary DNA is identical to that of a bovine cytoplasmic actin and shows 98 and 85% homology with a Dictyostelium and a yeast actin, respectively. The complementary DNA sequence indicates that the 3' end of the mRNA contains an unusually long (greater than 400 nucleotides) 3' non-translated region. A comparison of this 3' non-coding region with those of recently determined actin complementary DNA sequences from other species reveals little or no homology among these sequences. Thus, these results indicate that although the actin amino acid sequences are extremely conserved, the non-coding regions of the mRNAs diverge rapidly.  相似文献

The complete nucleotide sequence of L1Md-A13, a 6372 base-pair (bp) member of the L1Md repetitive family isolated from a BALB/c mouse genomic DNA library, is reported. The nucleotide sequence of 4331 bp from the 5' end of L1Md-9, which is located in the beta-globin complex of the C57BL/10 mouse, is also reported. Parsimony analysis of these sequences plus two previously reported L1Md sequences allows the determination of an ancestral L1Md sequence. Analysis of the L1Md population indicates that this ancestral sequence is likely to represent a functional L1 sequence. This ancestral sequence confirms that the length (1137 bp and 3900 bp) and relationship (14 bp overlap) of the two large open reading frames previously reported are conserved features of the L1Md family. It also allows the determination of an ancestral amino acid sequence for these two open reading frames. Full-length L1Md elements have one of two sequences tandemly repeated at the 5' end. These two monomers are called A-type and F-type. Our data define the 5' end of A-type full-length L1Md elements. L1Md elements of the A-type have varying numbers of tandemly repeated 208 bp monomers, but each element ends about 78 bp from the 5' end of the terminal 208 bp monomer.  相似文献

The nucleotide sequence of a cDNA clone encoding the wheat Em protein.   总被引:12,自引:2,他引:10       下载免费PDF全文
The nucleotide sequence of a cDNA clone isolated from developing wheat embryos and encoding the Em protein is reported. The entire coding region for Em and the 3' non-translated flank are contained within this clone. The amino acid sequence deduced for Em is very rich in glycine (18 mol%) as well as both basic and acidic residues. The molecular weight of the protein is ca. 9,900 daltons. The deduced sequence is supported by direct amino acid sequencing of cyanogen bromide cleavage fragments obtained from purified Em protein. Em is shown by Southern blots to be a product of a gene family of approximately ten members.  相似文献

cDNA encoding the bound type trehalase of the European honeybee was cloned. The cDNA (3,001 bp) contained the long 5' untranslated region (UTR) of 869 bp, and the 3' UTR of 251 bp including a poly(A) tail, and the open reading frame of 1,881 bp consisting of 626 amino acid residues. The Mr of the mature enzyme comprised of 591 amino acids, excluded a signal sequence of 35 amino acid residues, was 69,177. Six peptide sequences analyzed were all found in the deduced amino acid sequence. The amino acid sequence exhibited high identity with trehalases belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 37. A putative transmembrane region similar to trehalase-2 of the silkworm was found in the C-terminal amino acid sequence. Recombinant enzyme of the trehalase was expressed in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris as host, and displayed properties identical to those of the native enzyme except for higher sugar chain contents. This is the first report of heterologous expression of insect trehalase.  相似文献
