Identification of a novel thioredoxin-related transmembrane protein.
We recently identified a series of transforming growth factor-beta-responsive genes in A549 human adenocarcinoma cell line by a gene trap screening method. Here we report the molecular cloning and characterization of one of these genes, designated TMX, that encodes a novel protein of 280 amino acid residues. The TMX protein possesses an N-terminal signal peptide followed by one thioredoxin (Trx...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of a novel thioredoxin-related transmembrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum.
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contains a number of thiol-disulfide oxidoreductases of the protein-disulfide isomerase (PDI) family that catalyze the formation of disulfide bonds in newly synthesized proteins. Here we describe the identification and characterization of a novel member of the human PDI family, TMX3 (thioredoxin-related transmembrane protein 3). The TMX3 gene encodes a protein of ...
متن کاملNovel thioredoxin-related transmembrane protein TMX4 has reductase activity.
In the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a number of thioredoxin (Trx) superfamily proteins are present to enable correct disulfide bond formation of secretory and membrane proteins via Trx-like domains. Here, we identified a novel transmembrane Trx-like protein 4 (TMX4), in the ER of mammalian cells. TMX4, a type I transmembrane protein, was localized to the ER and possessed a Trx-like domain that f...
متن کاملIdentification of a Functional Interaction between the Transmembrane Protein Smoothened and the Kinesin-Related Protein Costal2
The hedgehog (Hh) family of morphogens plays important instructional roles in the development of numerous metazoan structures. Consistent with the role Hh homologs play in cell fate determination, aberrant Hh signaling results in numerous human pathologies. Hh signal transduction is initiated when Hh binds to its receptor Patched (Ptc), activating the transmembrane protein Smoothened (Smo). Smo...
متن کاملIdentification of a novel contactin-associated transmembrane receptor with multiple domains implicated in protein-protein interactions.
Receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase beta (RPTPbeta) expressed on the surface of glial cells binds to the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored recognition molecule contactin on neuronal cells leading to neurite outgrowth. We describe the cloning of a novel contactin-associated transmembrane receptor (p190/Caspr) containing a mosaic of domains implicated in protein-protein interactions. ...
