Isolation and expression of a human ornithine decarboxylase gene.
We have isolated a human ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) gene from a leukocyte genomic DNA library in order to examine the mechanisms involved in the regulation of ODC gene expression in normal and neoplastic cell growth. Nucleotide sequence analysis shows that the human ODC gene in clone ODC709-A2 consists of 12 exons which encode a protein identical to that inferred from a human ODC cDNA sequen...
متن کاملExpression of human chromosome 2 ornithine decarboxylase gene in ornithine decarboxylase-deficient Chinese hamster ovary cells.
Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) belongs to a multigene family and some of these may very well be nonfunctional (pseudogenes). We isolated an ODC gene from a human chromosome 2-specific library and transfected the gene into ODC-deficient Chinese hamster ovary cells to directly demonstrate that this ODC gene is functional and ODC is essential for cell proliferation. After screening 2.5 X 10(5) plaq...

Ornithine decarboxylase (OIK ) belongs to a multigene family and some of these may very well be nonfunctional (pseudogenes). We isolated an ODC gene from a human chromosome 2-specific library and transfected the gene into ODC-deficient Chinese hamster ovary cells to directly demonstrate that this ODC gene is functional and OIK is essential for cell proliferation. After screening 2.5 x 10* plaqu...
متن کاملRegulation of the expression of human ornithine decarboxylase gene and ornithine decarboxylase promoter-driven reporter gene in transgenic mice.
We have studied the regulation of the expression of ornithine decarboxylase with the aid of transgenic mice harbouring either functional human ornithine decarboxylase genes or the mouse ornithine decarboxylase promoter-driven chloramphenicol acetyltransferase fusion gene in their genome. We used three different stimuli which are well known to enhance ornithine decarboxylase activity in their ap...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and expression of the mouse ornithine decarboxylase gene.
We used mRNA from a mutant S49 mouse lymphoma cell line that produces ornithine decarboxylase (OrnDCase) as its major protein product to synthesize and clone cDNA. Plasmids containing OrnDCase cDNA were identified by hybrid selection of OrnDCase mRNA and in vitro translation. The two of these with the largest inserts together span 2.05 kilobases of cDNA. Southern blot analysis of DNA from wild-...
