Tumor-suppressive functions of leucine zipper transcription factor-like 1.
Human leucine zipper transcription factor-like 1 (LZTFL1) is a novel gene with unknown biological functions. It is located in the chromosome region 3p21.3, a hotspot for tumor suppressor genes. To understand the biological functions of LZTFL1, we surveyed the expression level of LZTFL1 in tumor and normal samples in tissue microarrays and a clinical archive of 84 gastric cancer specimens using ...
متن کاملA conserved retina-specific gene encodes a basic motif/leucine zipper domain.
Using subtraction cloning, we have isolated a human cDNA, AS321, which is expressed in retina and retinoblastoma cell lines but not in any other tissue or cell line tested. AS321 mRNA is detected in all cells of neural retina, with a high level of expression in photoreceptors. The polypeptide sequence deduced from the cDNA reveals consensus phosphorylation sites for protein kinase A and proline...
متن کاملA leucine zipper-like motif and a basic region-leucine zipper-like element in rat ribosomal protein L13a. Identification of the tum- transplantation antigen P198.
The amino acid sequence of the rat 60 S ribosomal subunit protein L13a was deduced from the sequence of nucleotides in two recombinant cDNAs. Mature ribosomal protein L13a has 202 amino acids (the NH2-terminal methionine is removed after translation of the mRNA) and a M(r) of 23,330. Hybridization of the L13a cDNA to digests of nuclear DNA suggests that there are 9-11 copies of the L13a gene. T...
متن کاملCharacterization of a conserved rhoptry-associated leucine zipper-like protein in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum.
One of the key processes in the pathobiology of the malaria parasite is the invasion and subsequent modification of the human erythrocyte. In this complex process, an unknown number of parasite proteins are involved, some of which are leading vaccine candidates. The majority of the proteins that play pivotal roles in invasion are either stored in the apical secretory organelles or located on th...
متن کاملInducing toxicity by introducing a leucine-zipper-like motif in frog antimicrobial peptide, magainin 2.
Cytotoxicity, a major obstacle in therapeutic application of antimicrobial peptides, is controlled by leucine-zipper-like sequences in melittin and other naturally occurring antimicrobial peptides. Magainin 2 shows significantly lower cytotoxicity than many naturally occurring antimicrobial peptides and lacks this structural element. To investigate the consequences of introducing a leucine zipp...
