Human renin gene: structure and sequence analysis.
The complete protein precursor of human kidney renin has been determined from the sequence of cloned genomic DNA. The gene spans 12 kilobases of DNA and is interrupted by eight intervening sequences. The nine regions (exons) encoding the protein were mapped with a mouse renin cDNA probe, synthetic oligonucleotide probes, and by hybridization of genomic restriction fragments to a 1600-nucleotide...
متن کاملCloning and sequence analysis of cDNA for human renin precursor.
The primary structure of human renin precursor has been deduced from its cDNA sequence. A library of cDNA clones was constructed from human kidney poly(A)+ RNA by applying the vector/primer method of Okayama and Berg. The library was screened for human renin sequences by hybridization with the previously cloned mouse renin cDNA. Of the 240,000 colonies screened, 35 colonies that were positive f...
متن کاملHaplotype analysis of the human renin gene and essential hypertension.
The human renin gene is an attractive candidate for involvement in the underlying cause of essential hypertension (EH). Despite extensive examination, the relation between the renin gene and hypertension remains unclear. The aims of the present study were to discover new genetic markers of EH and to investigate the relations between polymorphisms of the renin gene and EH in the Japanese. Using ...
متن کاملStructure and sequence of the human sulphamidase gene.
Sanfilippo A syndrome (MPS-IIIA) is a mucopolysaccharide lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal enzyme, sulphamidase (EC 3.10.1.1), which is required for the degradation of heparan sulphate. A genomic clone containing the entire sulphamidase gene was isolated from a chromosome 17-specific gridded cosmid library. The structure of the gene and the sequence of the exon/...
متن کاملGenomic sequence and structure of the human ABCG1 (ABC8) gene.
The human ATP-binding cassette half transporter G1 (hABCG1) may play a role in cholesterol transport in macrophages. Using RACE assays we determined the structure of this gene. The hABCG1 gene spans more than 97 kb comprising 20 exons, 20 kb and 5 exons more than hitherto described. Four of the novel exons are upstream and one is downstream of previous exon 1, and they are predicted to encode a...
