A gymnosperm extensin contains the serine-tetrahydroxyproline motif.
The extensin family is a diverse group of hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins located in the cell wall and characterized by repetitive peptide motifs glycosylated to various degrees. The origin of this diversity and its relationship to function led us earlier to compare extensins of the two major groups of angiosperms from which we concluded that the highly glycosylated Ser-Hyp(4) motif was chara...
متن کاملThe first intracellular loop of GLUT4 contains a retention motif.
Glucose transporter GLUT4 (also known as SLC2A4) plays a major role in glucose homeostasis and is efficiently retained intracellularly in adipocytes and myocytes. To simplify the analysis of its retention, here, various intracellular GLUT4 domains were fused individually to reporter molecules. Of the four short cytoplasmic loops of GLUT4, only the first nine-residue-long loop conferred intracel...
متن کاملThe murine Hox-2.4 promoter contains a functional octamer motif.
Like other HOX genes the murine Hox-2.4 gene is thought to be involved in regional specification along the antero-posterior axis. In addition it has been reported to have oncogenic potential. We studied expression Hox-2.4 in murine EC cells and determined the transcription start site. Studies of DNA-protein interactions in the promoter region showed that the Hox-2.4 promoter contains a CCAAT bo...
متن کاملThe optimal binding sequence of the Hox11 protein contains a predicted recognition core motif.
HOX11 is a homeobox-containing oncogene of specific T-cell leukemias. We determined the DNA binding specificity of the Hox11 protein by using a novel technique of random oligonucleotide selection developed in this study. The optimal Hox11 binding sequence, GGCGGTAAGTGG, contained a core TAAGTG motif that is consistent with a prediction based on the residues at specific positions that potentiall...
متن کاملThe pre-mRNA binding K protein contains a novel evolutionarily conserved motif.
The K protein is among the major pre-mRNA-binding proteins (hnRNPs) in vertebrate cell nuclei. It binds tenaciously to cytidine-rich sequences and is the major oligo(rC/dC)-binding protein in vertebrate cells. We have cloned a cDNA of the Xenopus laevis hnRNP K and determined its sequence. The X.laevis hnRNP K is a 47 kD protein that is remarkably similar to its human 66 kD counterpart except f...
