Cloning of an intracellular protein that binds selectively to mitogenic acidic fibroblast growth factor.
In addition to its extracellular action, there is evidence that acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) acts inside cells. To identify intracellular proteins interacting with aFGF, we screened a HeLa cell library in the yeast two-hybrid system using pLex-aFGF as a bait. A clone binding to aFGF, but not to the non-mitogenic mutant aFGF-K132E, was isolated and characterized. The insert contained a...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of an intracellular protein complex that binds fibroblast growth factor-2 in bovine brain.
The fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family is composed of polypeptides with sequence identity which signal through transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptors. We report here the purification from bovine brain microsomes of an FGF-2-binding complex composed of three proteins of apparent molecular masses 150 kDa, 79 kDa and 46 kDa. Only the 150 kDa and 79 kDa proteins bound FGF-2 in cross-linking and...
متن کاملOrganization, chromosomal localization and promoter analysis of the gene encoding human acidic fibroblast growth factor intracellular binding protein.
Acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) intracellular binding protein (FIBP) is a protein found mainly in the nucleus that might be involved in the intracellular function of aFGF. Here we present a comparative analysis of the deduced amino acid sequences of human, murine and Drosophila FIBP analogues and demonstrate that FIBP is an evolutionarily conserved protein. The human gene spans more than...
متن کاملRibosome-binding protein p34 is a member of the leucine-rich-repeat-protein superfamily.
Protein p34 is a non-glycosylated membrane protein characteristic of rough microsomes and is believed to play a role in the ribosome-membrane association. In the present study we isolated cDNA encoding p34 from a rat liver cDNA library and determined its complete amino acid sequence. p34 mRNA is 3.2 kb long and encodes a polypeptide of 307 amino acids with a molecular mass of about 34.9 kDa. Pr...
متن کاملAn acidic fibroblast growth factor protein generated by alternate splicing acts like an antagonist
Polymerase chain reaction amplification of cDNA for acidic fibroblast growth factor in several lines of cultured human cells revealed two forms of mRNA. The novel smaller mRNA lacks the entire second coding exon of the acidic fibroblast growth factor gene, whereas the previously identified mRNA consists of three coding exons. The truncated variant of acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF') is o...
