Cloning and developmental expression of a zebrafish meis2 homeobox gene
We show here that a zebrafish meis2 gene homolog has a dynamic expression pattern in the developing mesoderm and central nervous system. Meis family homeodomain proteins are known to act as cofactors with other homeodomain proteins. We find expression of meis2.1 in the developing zebrafish hindbrain and somites, correlating with reported sites of zebrafish hox gene expression, as well as in pre...
متن کاملCloning and expression of the TALE superclass homeobox Meis2 gene during zebrafish embryonic development
Meis and Prep/Pknox (MEINOX family) proteins, together with Pbx (PBC family) proteins, belong to the TALE superfamily characterized by an atypical homeodomain containing three additional amino acids between helix 1 and helix 2. Members of the MEINOX and PBC families have been isolated in Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila, Xenopus, chick, mouse and human, and play crucial roles in many aspects ...
متن کاملCloning and developmental expression of zebrafish GTP cyclohydrolase I
GTP cyclohydrolase I (GCH) catalyses the conversion of GTP to dihydroneopterin triphosphate, initiating the pteridine pathway. The final product tetrahydrobiopterin (H4biopterin) is the cofactor for neurotransmitter synthesis and for tyrosine supply during melanogenesis. Sepiapterin accumulates as a pigment. We cloned the zebrafish gch cDNA, which encodes a protein highly homologous to other ve...
متن کاملCloning and Expression of Thermus Aquaticus DNA Polymerase Gene, Using a Thermo-Inducible Expression Vector
DNA polymerase gene from Thermus aquaticus strain YT1 was amplified using VENTTM DNA po-lymerase and cloned under the control of X.PR promoter and expression was induced by a shift in tern perature. The culture was then sonicated, and after centrifugation the lysate was treated with polyethyleneimine followed by a salting-out step. Finally the protein was precipitated with ammonium sulfate and...
متن کاملCloning and Expression Analysis of ZmERD3 Gene From Zea mays
Background: Stresses (such as drought, salt, viruses, and others) seriously affect plant productivity. To cope with these threats, plants express a large number of genes, including several members of ERD (early responsive to dehydration) genes to synthesize and assemble adaptive molecules. But, the function of ERD3 gene hasn’t been known so far.Objectives:</strong...
