Signal sequence conservation and mature peptide divergence within subgroups of the murine beta-defensin gene family.
Beta-defensins are two exon genes which encode broad spectrum antimicrobial cationic peptides. We have analyzed the largest murine cluster of these genes which localizes to chromosome 8. Using hidden Markov models, we identified six beta-defensin exon 2-like sequences and subsequently found full-length expressed transcripts for these novel genes. Expression was high in brain and reproductive ti...
متن کاملThe C. elegans ric-3 gene is required for maturation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
Mutations in ric-3 (resistant to inhibitors of cholinesterase) suppress the neuronal degenerations caused by a gain of function mutation in the Caenorhabditis elegans DEG-3 acetylcholine receptor. RIC-3 is a novel protein with two transmembrane domains and extensive coiled-coil domains. It is expressed in both muscles and neurons, and the protein is concentrated within the cell bodies. We demon...
متن کاملThe Conservation of the Family
This is a book out of the common run, for it deals with the obvious. Such a statement may seem a paradox, but is not really so, for English-speaking peoples are disinclined to dissect their own feelings or to criticise what custom had ordained as most suitable for them. Mr. Popenoe is somewhat of a casuist, but he makes out a good case for monogamy and a large family, the latter an ideal which ...
متن کاملDifferential expression within the LOX gene family in ripening kiwifruit.
Real-time quantitative PCR was used to study lipoxygenase (LOX) gene expression patterns in kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa [A. Chev.] C.F. Liang et A.R. Ferguson var. deliciosa cv. Hayward) during fruit ripening, and in response to ethylene and low temperature during post-harvest storage. Six LOX genes were identified and cloned from a kiwifruit EST database. All were expressed in vegetative ti...
متن کاملStathmin gene family: phylogenetic conservation and developmental regulation in Xenopus.
The ubiquitous cytoplasmic phosphoprotein stathmin was proposed to play a general role as an intracellular relay integrating diverse signals regulating the proliferation, differentiation, and functions of cells (Sobel, A. (1991) Trends Biol. Sci. 16, 301-305). It was originally identified in mammalian cells and tissues, but antibodies directed against the mammalian protein also recognized a sta...
