We have isolated and sequenced a carrot cDNA and two soybean cDNAs encoding mitotic cyclin homologs. The soybean clones were derived from nearly identical cognate genes. The carrot cyclin and soybean cyclins were slightly more similar to A-type and B-type cyclins thus far defined, respectively. However, they had divergent amino acid sequences in the portion that is most highly conserved in known cyclins and we could not easily include them in either of the phylogenetic types. Since the homology between carrot and soybean cyclins was low, each of them might define a novel and distinct type. The mRNA of carrot cyclin, 1.5 kb in length, was expressed concomitant with somatic embryogenesis of cultured cells. Expression of soybean cyclin mRNAs, 1.6 kb in length, was localized in proliferating parts of seedlings. As in the case of cyclin genes of marine invertebrates, microinjection of a synthetic mRNA for the soybean cyclin induced the maturation of Xenopus oocytes. Other cyclin genes may be present because, on Southern blot analysis of soybean genomic DNA, the isolated soybean cDNA probe hybridized with additional genes under low stringency. 相似文献

Eighty accessions representing 23 species from the genus Oryza were examined for the presence of homologues of early nodulin (ENOD) genes. Southern analyses indicated a widespread distribution of homologues of ENOD genes across all the genomes of rice as well as other monocots. The degree of cross-hybridization of the legume ENOD genes with sequences in the genomes of various species, as revealed by hybridization differentials measured in terms of signal intensities, however, suggests that the homologues of ENOD genes are conserved to varied extents in different Oryza species. The presence of homologues of ENOD genes in a wide variety of plant species denotes that the biological functions of early nodulins may be diverse, and not restricted to nodule organogenesis alone. The fact that ENOD gene homologues exist widely both in dicots and monocots provides evidence that these homologues have arisen from a common ancestral plant. 相似文献

cDNA clones encoding mitochondrial phosphate transporters were isolated from four herbaceous plants. The cDNAs for the soybean, maize and rice transporters contained entire coding regions, whereas the Arabidopsis cDNA lacked the 5 portion. The hydropathy profiles of the deduced amino acid sequences predicted the existence of six membrane-spanning domains which are highly conserved in the mitochondrial transporter family. In soybeans, the mRNA level for the transporter was high in tissues containing dividing cells. It was suggested that there are multiple copies of transporter genes in both dicots and monocots. The soybean transporter was expressed as inclusion bodies in Escherichia coli, solubilized with detergents, and then reconstituted into liposomes. The resulting proteoliposomes exhibited high phosphate transport activity. The activity was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide, like those of mammalian phosphate transporters. 相似文献

To present basic information on the interobserver precision and accuracy of 32 selected anthropometric measurement items, six observers measured each of 37 subjects once in two days. The data were analyzed by using ANOVA, and mean absolute bias, standard deviation of bias, and mean absolute bias in standard deviation unit were used as measures of bias. By comparing the results of the two days, the effects of the practice on measurement errors were also investigated. Variance was overestimated by more than 10% in five measurements. Interobserver error variance and random error variance were highly correlated with each other. Measures of the bias were significantly correlated with interobserver and especially with random error variances. The interobserver errors were drastically reduced on the second day in the measurement items in which the causes of the interobserver errors could be specified. It was speculated that even when the definitions of the landmarks and measurement items were clear, the ambiguity in the practical procedures in locating landmarks, applying instruments, and so on, permitted each observer to develop his or her own measurement technique, and it in turn caused interobserver errors. To minimize interobserver and random errors, the standardization of measurement technique should be extended to the details of the practical procedures. 相似文献

We isolated a cDNA encoding mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase alpha, designated LjM3Kalpha, from Lotus japonicus, a model legume. The gene was expressed constitutively in roots, root nodules, and shoots. We also identified a novel nodulin gene, LjNUF, that shows specific expression in nodules. LjNUF resembles the C-terminal half of a hypothetical protein (pir//D85436), the N-terminal half of which is similar to a portion of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase gamma. Although LjNUF was predicted to be a secreted protein, its function remains to be clarified. 相似文献

Hereditary cancer was first described in the rat by Eker and Mossige in 1954 in Oslo. The Eker rat model of hereditary renal carcinoma (RC) was the first example of a Mendelian dominantly inherited predisposition to a specific cancer in an experimental animal, and has been contributing to the elucidation of renal carcinogenesis. Recently, we found a second hereditary RC model in the Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat, in Japan in 2000, which was named the Nihon rat. The Nihon rat is also an example of a Mendelian dominantly inherited predisposition for development of RCs like the Eker rat, which are predominantly of the clear cell type (this type represents approximately 75 % of human RCC), and develop from earlier preneoplastic lesions than the Eker rat. We performed a genetic linkage analysis of the Nihon rat using 113 backcross animals, and found that the Nihon mutation was tightly linked to genes, which are located on the distal part of rat chromosome 10. Finally, we identified a germline mutation in the Birt-Hogg-Dubé gene (Bhd) (rat chromosome 10, human chromosome 17p11.2) caused by the insertion of a single nucleotide in the Nihon rat gene sequence, resulting in a frame shift and producing a stop codon 26 amino acids downstream. Thus, the Nihon rat will contribute to understanding the BHD gene function and renal carcinogenesis. 相似文献

Thimet oligopeptidase (TOP) is a thiol- andmetallo-dependent peptidase and has been shown to beone of the -secretase candidates. TOPexpressed in COS cells cleaved amyloid precursorprotein (APP) at the -secretase site, and wefound a proteolytic product of APP called secretedform of APP by -secretase (sAPP) in theconditioned media. Here we demonstrate thatsAPP was increased in conditioned media whenTOP was coexpressed in COS cells with APP and treatedwith an ADAM inhibitor SI-27. In addition, althoughTOP expressed in COS cell was localized at nuclei orGolgi apparatus, it exclusively colocalized at Golgiapparatus when APP was coexpressed with TOP. 相似文献
