Molecular cloning of cDNA for the human interleukin-2 receptor.
Interleukin-2 (IL-2 or T cell growth factor) is a 14,500 daltons glycoprotein critically involved in the development of a normal human immune response [1, 2J. Recently, cDNA for this lymphokine has been isolated and expressed in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells [3-5J. Further, the human IL-2 gene has been cloned, sequenced [6], and localized to chromosome 4. As with other polypeptide hormo...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning and Characterization of Dectin-1 Receptor cDNA Expressed on Macrophages of Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis)
Dectin-1 a member of C-type lectin family of pathogen recognition receptor is primarily expressed on dendritic cells and macrophages. In this study, dectin-1 receptor cDNA has been characterized using Bubalus bubalis macrophage RNA and primers designed from known dectin-1 sequences of cattle and sheep. cDNA was synthesized using reverse transcriptase and used for amplification of two Bubalus bu...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of adenylate kinase from the human filarial parasite Onchocerca volvulus
Adenylate kinases (ADK) are ubiquitous enzymes that contribute to the homeostasis of adeninenucleotides in living cells. In this study, the cloning of a cDNA encoding an adenylate kinase from the filariaOnchocerca volvulus has been described. Using PCR technique, a 281 bp cDNA fragment encoding part ofan adenylate kinase was isolated from an O. volvulus cDNA library. Use of this fragment as a p...
متن کاملMechanism of pathogen recognition by human dectin-2
Dectin-2, a C-type lectin on macrophages and other cells of the innate immune system, functions in response to pathogens, particularly fungi. The carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD) in dectin-2 is linked to a transmembrane sequence that interacts with the common Fc receptor γ subunit to initiate immune signaling. The molecular mechanism by which dectin-2 selectively binds to pathogens has bee...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning, Characterization, and Expression of Cuc m 2, a Major Allergen in Cucumis melo
Background: Several studies reported the clinical features of IgE-mediated hypersensitivity after ingestion of melon. Melon allergy is a common IgE-mediated fruit allergy in Iran. This prompted us to investigate immunochemical and molecular properties of the major allergen in melon fruit, to compare the IgE-binding capacity of the natural protein with the recombinant allergen, and to determine ...
