Rat liver gap junction protein: properties and partial sequence.
Gap junctions, strongly implicated as channels for direct cell-to-cell communication, have been isolated from rat liver in high yield and purity. These gap junction fractions contain few morphologically recognizable contaminants, but NaDodSO4/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis reveals a number of polypeptides. With the exception of a nonjunctional component of Mr 38,000 and some poorly soluble ...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning of cDNA for Rat Liver Gap Junction Protein
An affinity-purified antibody directed against the 27-kD protein associated with isolated rat liver gap junctions was produced. Light and electron microscopic immunocytochemistry showed that this antigen was localized specifically to the cytoplasmic surfaces of gap junctions. The antibody was used to select cDNA from a rat liver library in the expression vector lambda gtll. The largest cDNA sel...

متن کاملConnexin43: a protein from rat heart homologous to a gap junction protein from liver
Northern blot analysis of rat heart mRNA probed with a cDNA coding for the principal polypeptide of rat liver gap junctions demonstrated a 3.0-kb band. This band was observed only after hybridization and washing using low stringency conditions; high stringency conditions abolished the hybridization. A rat heart cDNA library was screened with the same cDNA probe under the permissive hybridizatio...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of human and rat liver cDNAs coding for a gap junction protein
An extended synthetic oligonucleotide (58-mer) has been used to identify and characterize a human liver gap junction cDNA. The cDNA is 1,574 bases long and contains the entire coding region for a gap junction protein. In vitro translation of the RNA products of this cDNA is consistent with it coding for a 32,022-D protein. Southern blot analysis indicates that the gap junction gene is present a...
