Molecular cloning of a cDNA encoding the feline CD62L.
We cloned a cDNA fragment encoding a feline homologue of L-selectin (CD62L). The extracellular region of the feline CD62L fragment contained a calcium-dependent (C-type) lectin domain, an epidermal growth factor-like domain, and two Sushi/CCP/SCR domains. The flow cytometric analysis confirmed that the feline CD62L molecule, which was expressed 293T cells, retained an epitope recognized by an a...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of cDNA encoding the p70 (Ku) lupus autoantigen.
The Ku (p70/p80) autoantigen consists of two phosphoproteins of molecular mass approximately 70,000 and 80,000 forming a macromolecular complex that binds DNA. Autoantibodies from a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus were used to isolate cDNA clones encoding the human approximately 70-kDa Ku antigen (p70) from a lambda gt11 expression library. The deduced amino acid sequence of p70 consi...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of a cDNA encoding canine factor IX.
Factor IX (F.IX) is a vitamin K-dependent plasma protein, a deficiency of which results in hemophilia B. A canine model of hemophilia B exists; attempts to use this model for gene transfer experiments or characterization of the hemophilic defect require elucidation of normal canine F.IX structure. We report the isolation and characterization of the coding region for canine F.IX cDNA. Canine F.I...
متن کاملProphylactic effect of all-trans retinoic acid in an amyloid-beta rat model of Alzheimer\'s disease
Introduction: Retinoid signaling has been argued to have favorable effects on Alzheimer's disease (AD). We studied the role of chronic intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) on the amyloid-beta (Aβ) model of AD. Methods: Adult male rats weighing 260-330 g were divided into 12 groups of 8 each. Six groups of rats received ATRA (3nM, 30nM, 3μM, 0.3mM, 30...
متن کاملFunctional cloning of an Arabidopsis thaliana cDNA encoding cycloeucalenol cycloisomerase.
Plants and certain protists use cycloeucalenol cycloisomerase (EC ) to convert pentacyclic cyclopropyl sterols to conventional tetracyclic sterols. We used a novel complementation strategy to clone a cycloeucalenol cycloisomerase cDNA. Expressing an Arabidopsis thaliana cycloartenol synthase cDNA in a yeast lanosterol synthase mutant provided a sterol auxotroph that could be genetically complem...
