A naturally occurring soluble isoform of murine Fas generated by alternative splicing
We report a soluble isoform of mouse Fas, which is generated by alternative splicing of Fas mRNA to a newly identified exon located between exons 2 and 3 of the previously published Fas sequence. This splicing event creates a novel Fas transcript, Fas beta, with the potential to encode a truncated form of the extracellular domain, termed Fas B. In vitro, P815 mastocytoma cells transfected with ...
متن کاملA naturally occurring isoform of the human macrophage scavenger receptor (SR-A) gene generated by alternative splicing blocks modified LDL uptake.
The class A macrophage scavenger receptors (SR-A) are macrophage-specific trimeric integral membrane glycoproteins that have been implicated in many macrophage-associated physiological and pathological processes including atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and host defense. There are two forms of the receptor that have been previously cloned, and both are generated by alternative splicing of...
متن کاملTwo types of murine CD34 mRNA generated by alternative splicing.
To characterize and clarify the function of CD34 antigen experimentally, we isolated two types of CD34 mRNA from a cDNA library of murine stromal cell line, PA-6 stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and 12-o-tetra-decanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) using a human CD34 probe. In addition to the clone (open reading frame [ORF]:1149bp) reported by Brown et al, a novel clone (ORF:978 bp) was obtai...
متن کاملA tumor-associated fibronectin isoform generated by alternative splicing of messenger RNA precursors
Fibronectin (FN) represents the mixture of a number of structurally different molecules (isoforms) whose make-up varies depending on the FN sources. FN from cultured transformed human cells has a very different isoform composition with respect to its normal counterpart. In fact, SV-40-transformed WI-38VAI3 human fibroblasts produce high levels of a FN isoform (B-FN) which is very poorly express...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of a soluble cadherin-7 isoform produced by alternative splicing.
We identified an alternative mRNA encoding a novel cadherin-7 isoform by reverse transcriptase-PCR of RNA from day 12 chicken embryos. The alternative mRNA contains 49 bases of insertion in the premembrane region, leading to the substitution of 14 amino acids and the introduction of a premature stop codon. Identification of a 49-bp insertion sequence in the genomic DNA corresponding to the intr...
