Molecular cloning, tissue distribution, and functional expression of the human Na+/H+exchanger NHE2.
In the present report, we describe the cloning of a human colonic cDNA that describes the full-length Na+/H+exchanger (NHE) 2 coding region. The human NHE2 (hNHE2) cDNA encodes for a polypeptide of 812 amino acids with a 90% overall identity to both rabbit and rat NHE2 isoforms. In comparison with SLC9A2, recently reported as the human NHE2, the hNHE2 polypeptide is 115 amino acids longer in th...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, functional expression, and tissue distribution of a potato sprout allene oxide synthase involved in a 9-lipoxygenase pathway.
Potato (Solanum tuberosum) plants are rich in 9-lipoxygenase, which converts linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid to 9S-hydroperoxy-10E,12Z-octadecadienoic acid (9-HPOD) and 9S-hydroperoxy-10E,12Z,15Z-octadecatrienoic acid (9-HPOT) respectively. The allene oxide synthase (AOS) involved in 9-HPOD/9-HPOT metabolism in potato, however, has not been characterized in detail. We cloned a cDNA encod...
متن کاملcDNA cloning, functional expression, and mRNA tissue distribution of a third organellar Ca2+ pump.
We describe the characterization of a rat kidney cDNA that encodes a novel Ca2+-transporting ATPase. The cDNA, termed RK 8-13, was isolated previously using an oligonucleotide hybridization probe corresponding to part of the ATP binding site of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPases (Gunteski-Hamblin, A.-M., Greeb, J., and Shull, G. E. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 15032-15040). The complete nucleo...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, baculovirus expression, and tissue distribution of the zebrafish aldehyde dehydrogenase 2.
Ethanol is metabolized to acetaldehyde mainly by the alcohol dehydrogenase pathway and, to a lesser extent, through microsomal oxidation (CYP2E1) and the catalase-H(2)O(2) system. Acetaldehyde, which is responsible for some of the deleterious effects of ethanol, is further oxidized to acetic acid by aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs), of which mitochondrial ALDH2 is the most efficient. The aim of ...
متن کاملTitle Tissue Distribution, Molecular Cloning, and Gene Expression of Cytosolic Glutathione Peroxidase in Japanese Monkey
Cytosolic glutathione peroxidase (GPX-1) is an important antioxidant enzyme that scavange hydrogen peroxide in mammalian cells. The level of GPX-1 activity in Japanese monkey ( Macaca fuscata ) tissues was determined and it was found to be high in the liver, kidney, and adrenal gland followed by the small intestine. We also cloned the GPX-1 cDNA that included the whole protein-coding region. Th...
