Cloning of cDNAs encoding amphibian bombesin: evidence for the relationship between bombesin and gastrin-releasing peptide.
Bombesin is a tetradecapeptide originally isolated from frog skin; its mammalian homologue is the 27-amino acid peptide gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP). cDNAs encoding GRP have been cloned from diverse species, but little is yet known about the amphibian bombesin precursor. Mass spectrometry of HPLC-separated skin exudate from Bombina orientalis was performed to demonstrate the existence of aut...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of cDNAs encoding human gastrin-releasing peptide.
We have prepared and cloned cDNAs derived from poly(A)+ RNA from a human pulmonary carcinoid tumor rich in immunoreactivity to gastrin-releasing peptide, a peptide closely related in structure to amphibian bombesin. Mixtures of synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotides corresponding to amphibian bombesin were used as hybridization probes to screen a cDNA library prepared from the tumor RNA. Sequencin...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of the bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide receptor from Swiss 3T3 cells.
The mammalian bombesin-like peptides gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) and neuromedin B regulate numerous and varied cell physiologic processes in various cell types and have also been implicated as autocrine growth factors influencing the pathogenesis and progression of human small cell lung carcinomas. We report here the molecular characterization of the bombesin/GRP receptor. Structural analys...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of cDNAs encoding the human bombesin-like peptide neuromedin B. Chromosomal localization and comparison to cDNAs encoding its amphibian homolog ranatensin.
The amidated decapeptide neuromedin B (NMB) is the mammalian homolog of the amphibian bombesin-like peptide ranatensin. cDNAs encoding human neuromedin B and amphibian ranatensin were isolated from human hypothalamic and Rana pipiens skin libraries, respectively. Sequence analysis revealed that NMB is encoded in a 76-amino acid precursor and ranatensin in an 82-amino acid precursor. In the NMB ...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of the bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide receptor from Swiss 3T3 cells.
The bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) receptor was solubilized from Swiss mouse 3T3 cell membranes in an active form and was purified about 90,000-fold to near homogeneity by a combination of wheat germ agglutinin-agarose and ligand affinity chromatography. The purified receptor displayed a single diffuse band with a Mr of 75,000-100,000 on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel elect...
