NMR structure of the sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) metallothionein MTA.

The three-dimensional structure of [(113)Cd7]-metallothionein-A (MTA) of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus was determined by homonuclear(1)H NMR experiments and heteronuclear [(1)H, (113)Cd]-correlation spectroscopy. MTA is composed of two globular domains, an N-terminal four-metal domain of the amino acid residues 1 to 36 and a Cd4Cys11cluster, and a C-terminal three-metal domain in...

Comparison of sea urchin and human mtDNA: evolutionary rearrangement.

Clones of full-length mtDNA have been isolated from a Strongylocentrotus franciscanus recombinant DNA library by screening a cDNA clone of cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 mRNA. Restriction fragment cross-hybridization analysis shows the following difference in gene arrangement between sea urchin and human mtDNA. The 16S rRNA and cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 genes are directly adjacent in sea urchi...

Diversity of olfactomedin proteins in the sea urchin.

Olfactomedin (OLF) domain proteins maintain extracellular protein-protein interactions in diverse phyla. Only one OLF family member, amassin-1, has been described from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, a basal invertebrate deuterostome. Amassin-1 mediates intercellular adhesion of coelomocytes (immunocytes). Here we describe the protein structural features of four additional OLF pro...

Sequence variations in 185/333 messages from the purple sea urchin suggest posttranscriptional modifications to increase immune diversity.

The 185/333 gene family is highly expressed in two subsets of immune cells in the purple sea urchin in response to immune challenges. The genes encode a surprisingly diverse set of transcripts, which is a function of the variable presence or absence of blocks of shared sequences, known as elements that generate element patterns. Diversity is also the result of a significant level of point mutat...

Distinct single-copy sequence sets in sea urchin nuclear RNAs.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether nuclear RNAs (nRNA) of sea urchin embryos and adult tissues contain identical or partially distinct sets of single-copy sequence transcripts. A DNA tracer was prepared consisting mainly of sequences absent from gastrula nRNA; 3.6% of this tracer reacted with adult intestine nRNA but not with gastrula nRNA. The existence of a differentially tran...
