Abstract:
Hydroxyindole O-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.4) is the enzyme that catalyses the synthesis of melatonin in the pineal gland and in the retina. Polyadenylated RNA from chicken pineal glands was used to prepare a cDNA library in lambda gt11. The library was screened with an antiserum directed against chicken hydroxyindole O-methyltransferase, and one cDNA clone was isolated. The fusion protein expressed by phage lysogens was identified on Western blots as a 165 kDA immunoreactive protein (beta-galactosidase, 110 kDa; hydroxyindole O-methyltransferase, 38 kDa). The fusion protein exhibited hydroxy

Abstract:
Mammalian class I aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH1) has been implicated as a retinal dehydrogenase in the biosynthesis of retinoic acid, a modulator of gene expression and cell differentiation. As the first step towards studying the regulation of ALDH1 and its physiological role in the biosynthesis of retinoic acid, mouse ALDH1 cDNA and genomic clones have been characterized. During the cloning process, an additional closely related gene was also isolated and named Aldh-pb, owing to its high amino acid sequence identity (92%) with the rat phenobarbitol-inducible ALDH protein (ALDH-PB).

Abstract:
A cDNA containing the complete open-reading frame encoding rabbit antithrombin III (AT-III) was isolated from a rabbit liver cDNA expression library, using a specific antibody as a probe. Sequence analysis showed 84% identity between the deduced amino acid sequences of the rabbit and human proteins. A previously described cell-free expression system was used to verify the identity of the clone. The full-length cDNA was inserted into an expression vector, and messenger RNA (mRNA) transcripts generated. In vitro translation of these transcripts, in the presence of [35S]methionine, in an mRNA-dep

Abstract:
We used Northern blot analysis, ribonuclease protection assay (RPA), reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, and in situ hybridization to investigate the hypothesis that the CNG1 isoform of the cyclic nucleotide-gated nonselective cation channel may be widely distributed in tissues of the rat. A cDNA encoding the CNG1 isoform was isolated from rat eye and human retina, and partial sequences were isolated from rat pineal gland and human kidney. Northern blot analysis revealed a 3.1-kilobase (kb) CNG1 transcript in rat eye, pineal gland, pituitary, adrenal gland, and spleen, and a large

Abstract:
CTP:phosphoethanolamine cytidylyltransferase (ET) is a key regulatory enzyme in the CDP-ethanolamine pathway for phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis. As a first step in the elucidation of the structure-function relationship and the regulation of ET, an ET cDNA was cloned from rat liver. The cloned cDNA encodes a protein of 404 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular mass of 45.2 kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence is very similar to that of human ET (89% identity). Furthermore, it shows less, but significant, similarity to yeast ET as well as to other cytidylyltransferases, including r

Abstract:
Bovine conglutinin is a collagen-like, C-type, plasma lectin which belongs to the group of proteins called ‘collectins’. Two inosine-containing oligonucleotides were synthesized, based on the published protein sequence for bovine conglutinin [Lee, Leiby, Allar, Paris, Lerch and Okarma (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 2715-2723], and PCR on target DNA from a bovine liver lambda gt 11 cDNA library yielded a product of the expected size of 210 bp. Screening of the library with this cDNA fragment identified a single positive clone, with an insert of 0.9 kb, coding for bovine conglutinin from residue 70

Abstract:
Interphotoreceptor retinoid binding protein (IRBP) is a soluble glycolipoprotein located between the neurosensory retina and pigment epithelium, which may serve to transport vitamin A derivatives between these tissues. The specific cell type responsible for IRBP synthesis has not been well established. To address this issue, we have examined the expression of IRBP mRNA in human and cone-dominant ground squirrel retinas by in situ hybridization. Optimal labeling and histological resolution were achieved with 35S- and 3H-labeled anti-sense riboprobes made from a human IRBP cDNA clone, and semi-t

Abstract:
The availability of antitumor cytotoxic T lymphocytes which can be generated from either peripheral blood lymphocytes after stimulation in vitro or tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) has made it possible to identify a number of melanoma antigens presented by major histocompatibility complex class I molecules. The present and previous studies indicated that TIL586 recognized an antigen expressed on most melanoma and normal melanocytes in the context of the HLA-A31 molecule. We report here the cloning of a cDNA that directs the expression of the shared melanoma antigen recognized by this TIL.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT A prolactin cDNA was cloned from a cDNA expression library constructed from total RNA of bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) adenohypophyses by immunoscreening with antiserum against bullfrog prolactin. The cDNA clone thus obtained contained a 249 bp insert. Using this clone as a probe, plaque hybridizations were performed and two additional clones obtained. These clones had a polyadenylation site different from that of the first obtained clone, suggesting that the 3′-untranslated sequence was heterogeneous in length. The longest clone contained 830 bp, which encoded part of the signal peptid
