Isolation, cloning and sequencing of red seabream (Pagrus major) somatolactin (rsbSL) cDNA from pituitary gland revealed an open reading frame of 693 bp coding for a pre-growth hormone of 231 amino acids with a 22 amino acid putative signal peptide. Deduced amino acid sequence showed that there was one possible N-glycosylation site at Asn$^{145}$ and seven Cys residues (Cys$_{29}$ , Cys$^{39}$ , Cys$^{66}$ , Cys$^{89}$ , Cys$^{205}$ , Cys$^{222}$ , Cys$^{230}$ ). Except Cys$^{66}$ , others may be involved in disulfide bond formation. The rsbSL presented a 93% amino acid sequence identity with the SL of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) and contained the conserved hormone domain region. Expression of rsbSL in E. coli (BL2l) cells and gel analysis revealed a higher molecular weight for rsbSL than expected theoretically, implying posttranslational modifications.

It is still difficult and time consuming to obtain cDNA sequences that contain the entire nucleotide sequence of the corresponding mRNA. A rapid and high efficient cloning method to obtain full-length cDNA segments is thus developed. The cloning procedure described here consists of the construction of oligo(dT)-tailed vector primer using pWR34 plasmid, polyadenylation of mRNA-cDNA heteroduplex using terminal deoxytransferase, and replacement of MRNA strand with DNA by RNase H and DNA polymerase I. The restriction endonuclease analysis shows that the size of inserted-cDNA is in the range of 1.5~4.0 kb long suggesting that most of cloned cDNA are full-length or nearly full-length cDNA. The plasmid-DNA recombinants obtained were 4$\times$$10^5$~$10^{6}$ per $\mu\textrm{g}$ of rat liver poly (A$^+$)mRNA, which is 4 to 10 fold higher cloning efficiency in comparison to the presently used methods for full-length cDNA cloning. The results indicate that the described cloning system is much simpler, less time consuming, and very efficient cloning method to construct a cDNA library.

Positional cloning (map-based cloning) of mutations or genetic variations has been served as an invaluable tool to understand in-vivo functions of genes and to identify molecular components underlying phenotypes of interest. Mice homozygous for the cerebellar deficient folia (cdf) mutation are ataxic, with cerebellar hypoplasia and abnormal lobulation of the cerebellum. In the cdf mutant cerebellum approximately 40% of Purkinje cells are ectopically located within the white matter and the inner granule cell layer (IGL). To identify the cdf gene, a high-resolution genetic map for the cdf-gene-encompassing region was constructed using 1997 F2 mice generated from C3H/HeSnJ-cdf/cdf and CAST/Ei intercross. The cdf gene showed complete linkage disequilibrium with three tightly linked markers D6Mit208, D6Mit359, and D6Mit225. A contig using YAC, BAC, and P1 clones was constructed for the cdf critical region to identify the gene. A deletion in the cdf critical region on chromosome 6 that removes approximately 150kb of DNA was identified. A gene associated with this deletion was identified using cDNA selection. cdf mutant mice with the transgenic copy of the identified gene restored the brain abnormalities of the mutant mice. The positional cloning of cdf gene provides a good example showing the identification of a gene could lead to finding a new component of important molecular pathways.

HcNPV DNA genome 을 제한효소 EcoRI 으로 절단하여 그들의 일부 절편을 pUC8 vector 에 cloning 한 후 E. coli JM 83 세포에 형질 전환시켰다. 이 결과 24 개의 EcoRI 절편중 12 개의 절편이 cloning 되었다. 이들 제조합체중 4 개는 eNP-O, eNP-Q, eNP-R, eNP-S 라 명명하였다. 또한 이들 제조합체의 외래 유전자 발현을 SDS-PAGE 에 의해 단백질 패턴을 분석하였다. 그 결과 제조합체 eNP-O, eNP-Q, eNP-R 에서는 E. coli JM 83 숙주세포의 단백질 밴드와 비교하여 다른 분자량을 갖는 밴드가 나타났다.

Here we report the molecular cloning of a LIM protein cDNA of the CRP (cysteine-rich protein) family from the mulberry longicorn beetle, Apriona, geramri. The A. germari LIM protein cDNA contains an open reading frame of 276 bp encoding 92 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular weight of approximately 10 kDa. The A. germari LIM protein contains the cysteine-rich consensus sequence of LIM domain and the glycine-rich consensus sequence observed in cysteine-rich protein family 1 (CRP1). The potential nuclear targeting signal is retained. The deduced amino acid sequence of the A. germari LIM protein cDNA showed 81 % identity to both Bombyx mori muscle LIM protein (Mlp) and Drosophila melanogaster Mlp60A and 77% to Epiblema scudderiana Mlp. Northern blot analysis showed that A. germari LIM protein is highly expressed in epidermis and muscle, and less strongly in midgut, but not in the fat body.

The bumblebee Bombus terrestris is widely used in greenhouses to pollinate crops. Here, we report the molecular cloning and characterization of chymotrypsin inhibitor and chitin-binding protein homologs from B. terrestris. Two cDNAs encoding chymotrypsin inhibitor (Bt-CI) and chitin-binding protein (Bt-CBP) homologs were cloned from B. terrestris. Gene sequence analysis showed that Bt-CI gene consists of three exons encoding 75 amino acids, including a predicted 20-amino acid signal peptide, while Bt-CBP consists of two exons encoding 78 amino acids, including a predicted 26-amino acid signal peptide. The mature Bt-CI and Bt-CBP peptides contain ten and six conserved cysteine residues, respectively. Database searches using the deduced sequences of Bt-CI and Bt-CBP showed similarity to those from B. impatiens (96% peptide sequence identities). Bt-CI and Bt-CBP were expressed in both the venom gland and fat body of B. terrestris worker bees. The recombinant Bt-CI and Bt-CBP peptides were expressed in baculovirus-infected insect cells. Taken together, our findings describe the molecular characterization of Bt-CI and Bt-CBP from B. terrestris.

Xylanase를 생산하는 알칼리 내성 Bacillus alcalophilus AX2000의 chromosomal DNA로부터 xylanase 유전자를 cloning하여 그 염기배열 순서를 결정한 다음 이로부터 유전자 발현에 관련된 구조를 분석하였다. Xylanase 유전자의 cloning을 위해 제한효소 PstI으로 절단한 B. alcalophilus AX2000의 chromosomal DNA와 pUC19을 ligation 시켜 E. coli $DH5\alpha$에 형질전환시킨 후 형질전환체 중에서 xylanase 활성을 나타내는 재조합 plasmid pXTY99를 분리하였다. 재조합 plasmid pXTY99은 pUC19의 PstI 부위 내에 7kb의 외래 DNA가 삽입 되 었다. Cloning된 xylanase 유전자(xynT)의 염기배열을 분석한 결과 유전자의 크기는 1,020 bp이었고 이는 340개의 아미노산으로 구성된 분자량 40 kDa의 poly-peptide를 coding하고 있었다. 이 염기배열은 AUG 개시 codon으로부터 각각 259와 282 base상류에 TACAAT의 -10 box와 GTTCACA인 -35 box로 추정되는 염기배열이 존재하였으며 ribosome 결합부위가 존재하였다. B. alcalophilus AX2000의 xylanase와 아미노산배열의 유사성이 가장 높은 xylanase는 Bacillus sp. N137과 B. stearothemophilus 21 유래의 xylanase로 각각 $61\%$와 $59\%$의 유사성을 나타내었다.

Aminoalcoholphosphotransferase catalyzes the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine from diacylglycerol plus a CDP-aminoalcohol such as CDP-choline or CDP-ethanolamine. Previously we suggested the presence of possible isoforms of this enzyme from Chinese cabbage roots and now report the cDNA cloning and expression analysis of AAPT3 encoding a third isoform of aminoalcoholphosphotransferase (AAPT3). AAPT3 contains an open reading frame of 1,176 bp coding for a protein of 392 amino acids. It shares 96 and 95% identity with Chinese cabbage AAPT1 and AAPT2, respectively, at the deduced amino acid level. The results from reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis indicate that expression of AAPT3 is up-regulated by low temperature as well as AAPT1 and AAPT2.
