Functional Characterization of Newly-Discovered Mutations in Human SR-BI
In rodents, SR-BI has been firmly established as a physiologically relevant HDL receptor that mediates removal of HDL-cholesteryl esters (CE). However, its role in human lipoprotein metabolism is less defined. Recently, two unique point mutations in human SR-BI - S112F or T175A - were identified in subjects with high HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. We hypothesized that mutation of these conserv...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Human Gene for a Newly Discovered
Six carbonic anhydrase (CA) isozymes (CA I-VI) in mammals and other amniotes have been described. We have isolated an additional CA gene from a human genomic library and designated its putative product carbonic anhydrase VII (CA VII). The gene is approximately 10 kb long and contains seven exons and six introns found at positions identical to those determined for the previously described CA I, ...
متن کاملA newly discovered human alpha-globin gene.
A previously undefined transcript with significant homology to the pseudo-alpha2 region of the alpha-globin locus on human chromosome 16 was detected as part of an effort to better define the transcriptional profiles of human reticulocytes. Cloning and sequencing of that transcript (GenBank AY698022; named mu-globin) revealed an insert with a 423-nucleotide open reading frame. BLASTP and Clusta...

متن کاملFunctional analysis of newly discovered growth control genes: experimental approaches.
A large number of DNA sequences corresponding to human and animal transcripts have been filed in data banks, as cDNAs or ESTs (expression sequence tags). However, the actual function of their corresponding gene products is still largely unknown. Several of these genes may play a role in regulation of important biological processes such as cell division, differentiation, malignant transformation...
