Molecular Cloning and Characterization
A new member of the connexin gene family has been identified and designated rat connexin-3 1 (Cx3 1) based on its predicted molecular mass of 30,960 daltons. Cx31 is 270 amino acids long and is coded for by a single copy gene. It is expressed as a 1.7-kilobase mRNA that is detected in placenta, Harderian gland, skin, and eye. Cx31 is highly conserved and can be detected in species as distantly ...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning and Characterization
Human folate-binding proteins (FBPs) are single chain glycoproteins that contain a high affinity binding site for folates and methotrexate and occur in a soluble or membrane-associated form. The membrane-associated FBP is involved in the uptake of physiologic folates and methotrexate. In this study, human FBP cDNA clones were isolated from human malignant nasopharyngeal carcinoma (KB) cell and ...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, characterization and expression profiles of three estrogen receptors in protogynous hermaphroditic orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides).
Estrogen plays key roles in vertebrate reproductive system via estrogen receptors (ERs) as mediating pathways. In the present study, three full-length ERs cDNA sequences were isolated from a protogynous teleost, the orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides), and were 2235bp for gERα, 1967bp for gERβ1 and 2158bp for gERβ2, respectively. Phylogenetic and amino acid alignment analyses showed t...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, expression, and regulation of estrogen receptors in pigeon oviduct epithelial cells.
Estrogen regulates reproductive behavior and drives the proliferation and differentiation of several cell types. These physiological functions of estrogen are mediated by estrogen receptors (ERs), and each ER isoform plays a distinct role. To clarify the molecular mechanism of estrogen action and to evaluate the effect of ERs on the secretion of ovalbumin (OVA) in pigeon oviduct epithelial cell...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of multiple opioid receptors.
Over the course of 1 to 2 years, the field has moved swiftly to investigate the functional and structural properties of the newly cloned opioid receptors. Achieving a better understanding of these macromolecules is likely to have profound implications for drug design aimed at the production of better analgesic drugs, for a more fundamental understanding of mechanisms of action of drugs of abuse...
