The buccalin-related neuropeptides: isolation and characterization of an Aplysia cDNA clone encoding a family of peptide cotransmitters.
The buccalin-related peptides, buccalin A and buccalin B, are members of a family of cotransmitters that modulate neuromuscular transmission in Aplysia. In this study, a third buccalin-related peptide, buccalin C, was purified from neuronal elements in the accessory radula closer, a muscle involved in the animal's feeding behavior. Oligonucleotide probes based upon the amino acid sequence of bu...
متن کاملA cDNA clone encoding a rice catalase isozyme.
Catalase (H202: H202 oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.6) is a heme-containing enzyme that converts H202 into oxygen and water. In plants, catalase is involved in scavenging H202, which is generated during the course of photorespiration and P-oxidation of fatty acids. It also plays an important role in detoxification of active oxygen species that are generated by various environmental stresses (Scandal...
متن کاملIsolation of a cDNA clone encoding pancreatic polypeptide.
We have isolated a cDNA clone encoding pancreatic polypeptide from a cDNA library constructed with RNA from an endocrine neoplasm of the human pancreas. The cDNA was inserted into plasmid pBR322 and the plasmid was cloned in Escherichia coli. Oligonucleotides (sequence in text) specific for the amino acid sequence (sequence in text) of pancreatic polypeptide were used as hybridization probes. T...
متن کاملAn unbiased cDNA library prepared from isolated Aplysia sensory neuron processes is enriched for cytoskeletal and translational mRNAs.
Local protein synthesis is required for long-lasting synapse-specific plasticity in cultured Aplysia sensorimotor synapses. To identify synaptically localized mRNAs, we prepared a cDNA library from isolated sensory neurites. By sequence analysis, we estimate that the library contains 263 distinct mRNAs, with 98 of these mRNAs constituting 70% of all clones. The localized transcripts are enriche...
متن کاملA cDNA clone encoding a ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
FNR (EC 1.18.1.2) is a flavoenzyme that plays an important role in the metabolism of photosynthetic organisms. FNR catalyzes the final step of the linear photosynthetic electron transfer chain by mediating the passage of electrons from reduced Fd to NADP+. FNR is situated at a branch point in electron flow, playing a key role in regulating the relative amounts of cyclic and noncyclic electron f...
