Verification and characterization of an alternative low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 splice variant
BACKGROUND Low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) is a ubiquitously expressed multi-ligand endocytosis receptor implicated in a wide range of signalling, among others in tumour biology. Tumour-associated genomic mutations of the LRP1 gene are described, but nothing is known about cancer-associated expression of LRP1 splice variants Therefore, the focus of this study was...
متن کاملCharacterization of mENT1 11, a Novel Alternative Splice Variant of the Mouse Equilibrative Nucleoside Transporter 1
Mammalian cells require specific transport mechanisms for the cellular uptake and release of endogenous nucleosides such as adenosine, and nucleoside analogs used in chemotherapy. We have identified a novel splice variant of the mouse equilibrative nucleoside transporter, mENT1, that results from the exclusion of exon 11 during pre-RNA processing. This variant encodes a truncated protein (mENT1...

متن کاملCharacterization of the 13q14 tumor suppressor locus in CLL: identification of ALT1, an alternative splice variant of the LEU2 gene.
Chromosome 13q14 deletions constitute the most common genetic abnormality in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). To identify the putative tumor suppressor gene targeted by 13q14 genomic loss, we completely sequenced and characterized a segment of 790 kb at 13q14 spanning the minimal region of loss in CLL. Transcribed sequences in the region were identified through database homology searches and...
متن کاملCharacterization of human and rat brain myristoyl-CoA:protein N-myristoyltransferase: evidence for an alternative splice variant of the enzyme.
Using 5'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends, we have identified an extended 5'-end of mRNA coding for human myristoyl-CoA:protein N-myristoyltransferase (NMT). PCR using primers based on this new 5'-sequence and reverse primers within the currently accepted coding sequence of the enzyme resulted in the identification of a novel splice variant of NMT. In vitro translation of these cDNAs resulted i...
