Complementary DNAs encoding the mouse GLUT3/brain facilitative glucose transporter have been isolated and sequenced. The predicted amino acid sequence indicates that mouse GLUT3 is composed of 493 amino acids and has 83 and 89% identity and similarity, respectively, to the sequence of human GLUT3. In contrast to human GLUT3 mRNA, which can be readily detected by RNA blotting in all human tissues that have been examined, mouse GLUT3 mRNA was only present at significant levels in brain. In situ hybridization showed differential expression of GLUT3 mRNA in several regions of adult mouse brain. Specific expression was observed in the hippocampus, with GLUT3 mRNA levels being higher in areas CA1 to CA3 than in the dentate gyrus. It was also detected in the Purkinje cell layer of the cerebellum and in the cerebral cortex, with higher expression in the piriform cortex than in other regions of the cortex. Antisera to mouse GLUT3 immunoblotted a series of proteins of 45-50 kDa in mouse brain plasma membranes. These results are consistent with GLUT3 being a neuronal glucose transporter. 相似文献

To study the molecular basis of tissue-specific expression of the GLUT4/muscle-fat facilitative glucose transporter gene, we generated lines of transgenic mice carrying 2.4 kilobases of the 5'-flanking region of the human GLUT4 gene fused to a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter gene (hGLUT4[2.4]-CAT). This reporter gene construct was specifically expressed in tissues that normally express GLUT4 mRNA, which include both brown and white adipose tissues as well as cardiac, skeletal, and smooth muscle. In contrast, CAT reporter activity was not detected in brain or liver, two tissues that do not express the GLUT4 gene. In addition, the relative levels of CAT mRNA driven by the human GLUT4 promoter in various tissues of these transgenic animals mirrored those of the endogenous mouse GLUT4 mRNA. Since previous studies have observed alterations in GLUT4 mRNA levels induced by fasting and refeeding (Sivitz, W. I., DeSautel, S. L., Kayano, T., Bell, G. I., and Pessin, J. E. (1989) Nature 340, 72-74), the regulated expression the hGLUT4[2.4]-CAT transgene was also assessed in these animals. Fasting was observed to decrease CAT activity in white adipose tissue which was super-induced upon refeeding. These alterations in CAT expression occurred in parallel to the changes in endogenous mouse GLUT4 mRNA levels. Although CAT expression in skeletal muscle and brown adipose tissue was unaffected, the endogenous mouse GLUT4 mRNA was also refractory to the effects of fasting/refeeding in these tissues. These data demonstrate that 2.4 kilobases of the 5'-flanking region of the human GLUT4 gene contain all the necessary sequence elements to confer tissue-specific expression and at least some of the sequence elements controlling the hormonal/metabolic regulation of this gene. 相似文献

To investigate the tissue distribution of the GLUT3 glucose transporter isoform in human tissue we produced affinity purified antibodies to the COOH terminus of the human GLUT3. Both antibodies recognize a specific GLUT3 band in oocytes injected with GLUT3 mRNA but not in those injected with H2O or GLUT1, 2, 4, 5 mRNA. This immunoreactive band in GLUT3 injected oocytes is photolabelled by cytochalasin-B in the presence of L- but not D-glucose indicating that it is a glucose transporter. A high cross reactivity between the human GLUT3 antibodies and a 43 kDa cytoskeletal actin band was identified in all oocyte lysates and many human tissues. However, the specific GLUT3 band could be distinguished from the actin band by carbonate treatment which preferentially solubilized the actin band. Using these antibodies we show that GLUT3 is present as a 45-48 kDa protein in human brain with lower levels detectable in heart, placenta, liver and a barely detectable level in kidney. No GLUT3 was detected in membranes from any of 3 skeletal muscle groups investigated. We conclude that a major role of GLUT3 in humans is as the brain neuronal glucose transporter. 相似文献

A cloned cDNA encoding a catalytic subunit of type 2A protein phosphatase from a rat liver cDNA library was obtained by use of a synthetic oligonucleotide corresponding to the tryptic peptide sequence of the purified enzyme. There was only a single amino acid difference between the deduced amino acid sequence of the clone obtained and those of the catalytic subunits, 2A alpha, of the rabbit skeletal muscle, porcine kidney and human liver enzymes, suggesting that this clone was a rat 2A alpha cDNA. On Northern blot analysis using a cDNA fragment as a probe, three mRNA species were detected in rat liver: a major mRNA of 2.0 kb and a minor one of 2.7 kb under high stringency conditions, and also a 1.1 kb mRNA under low stringency conditions. The 2A alpha gene was found to be highly expressed in various tissues of rat, especially the brain. High levels of expression of the gene were also detected in mouse NIH3T3 cells and their transformants, and in human cancer cell lines as well as a human immortalized cell line. 相似文献

Summary Human S-protein is a serum glycoprotein that binds and inhibits the activated complement complex, mediates coagulation through interaction with antithrombin III and plasminogen activator inhibitor I, and also functions as a cell adhesion protein through interactions with extracellular matrix and cell plasma membranes. A full length cDNA clone for human S-protein was isolated from a lambda gt11 cDNA library of mRNA from the HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cell line using mixed oligonucleotide sequences predicted from the amino-terminal amino acid sequence of human S-protein. The cDNA clone in lambda was subcloned into pUC18 for Southern and Northern blot experiments. Hybridization with radiolabeled human S-protein cDNA revealed a single copy gene encoding S-protein in human and mouse genomic DNA. In addition, the S-protein gene was detected in monkey, rat, dog, cow and rabbit genomic DNA. A 1.7 Kb mRNA for S-protein was detected in RNA from human liver and from the PLC/PRF5 human hepatoma cell line. No S-protein mRNA was detected in mRNA from human lung, placenta, or leukocytes or in total RNA from cultured human embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (RD cell line) or cultured human fibroblasts from embryonic lung (IMR90 cell line) and neonatal foreskin. A 1.6 Kb mRNA for S-protein was detected in mRNA from mouse liver and brain. No S-protein mRNA was detected in mRNA from mouse skeletal muscle, kidney, heart or testis. 相似文献

Patterns of glucose transporter expression have been well-characterized in mammals. However, data for birds is currently restricted to isolated cells, domestic chickens and chicks, and ducklings. Therefore, in the present study, protein and gene expression of various glucose transporters (GLUTs) in English sparrow extensor digitorum communis, gastrocnemius and pectoralis muscles as well as heart, kidney, and brain tissues were examined. The hypothesis is that the expression pattern of avian GLUTs differs from mammals to maintain the high plasma glucose levels of birds and insulin insensitivity. Our studies failed to identify a GLUT4-like insulin responsive transporter in sparrows. GLUT1 gene expression was identified in all tissues examined and shares 88% homology with chicken and 84% homology with human GLUT1. Compared to the rat control, GLUT1 immunostaining of sparrow extensor digitorum communis muscle was weak and appeared to be localized to blood vessels whereas immunostaining of gastrocnemius muscles was comparable to rat muscle controls. Gene expression of GLUT3 was identified in all tissues examined and shares 90% gene sequence homology with chicken embryonic fibroblast and 75% homology with human GLUT3. Protein expression of GLUT3 was not determined as an avian antibody is not available. Moreover, the C-terminus of the mammalian GLUT3 transporter, against which antibodies are typically designed, differs significantly among species. The predominant difference of chicken and sparrow GLUT expression patterns from that of mammals is the lack of an avian GLUT4. The absence of this insulin responsive GLUT in birds may be a contributing factor to the observed high blood glucose levels and insulin insensitivity. 相似文献

Recently, we cloned a cDNA encoding a novel mouse protein, named A-C1, by differential display between two mouse cell lines, embryonic fibroblast C3H10T1/2 and chondrogenic ATDC5. Mouse A-C1 has homology with a ras-responsive gene, rat Ha-rev107 (Hrasls), and modulates a Ha-ras-mediated signaling pathway. Here, we report a cDNA encoding a human homolog of mouse A-C1. The deduced amino acid sequence of human A-C1 consists of 168 amino acids, and shows 83% identity with that of mouse A-C1. Human A-C1 mRNA was expressed in skeletal muscle, testis, heart, brain, and thyroid in vivo. Moreover, expression of human A-C1 mRNA was detected at a high level in human osteosarcoma-derived U2OS cells in vitro. By FISH analysis the human A-C1 gene (HRASLS) was mapped to human chromosome 3q28--> q29. 相似文献
