Nucleotide sequence of a cDNA from the putative ovarian tumor locus of Drosophila melanogaster.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A cDNA from the putative ovarian tumor (otu) locus of the Drosophila melanoqaster X-chromosome was isolated from a Canton S ovary library using a genomic probe. The otu gene is essential for female fertility, and produces a variety of ovarian phenotypes when mutant (1). The cDNA corresponds tc an abundant 3.2 kb message present in nurse cells and the developing oocyte (2,3). A 2433 b.p. open reading frame predicts a proline-rich protein of 811 amino acids starting from the ATG at position 155. This sequence corrects and extends to the 5' direction the sequence previously reported for otu (4).

Nucleotide sequence of cDNA encoding for preprochymosin in native goat (Capra hircus) from Iran
Prochymosin is one of the most important aspartic proteinases used as a milk-clotting enzyme in cheese production. In the present investigation we report sequence of cDNA encoding goat ( Capra hircus ) preprochymosin and compare its nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences with sequences of other ruminants preprochymosin. As bovine prochymosin, the caprine prochymosin cDNA encodes 365 amino ...

The cDNA from the mycoparasitic fungus Trichoderma atroviride PTCC5220 encoding a 42 kDa chitinase (Chit42) was isolated. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA fragment as having a 1263 bp open reading frame that encodes a 421 amino acid polypeptide, and a high homology was found withother reported Chit42 belonging to the Trichoderma sp. The 22 amino acid N-terminal sequence is a putative s...

Background: In this study, the toxicity of the different xenobiotics was tested on the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster model system. Methods: Fly larvae were raised on food supplemented with xenobioticsat different concentrations (sodium nitroprusside (0.1-1.5 mM), S-nitrosoglutathione (0.5-4 mM), and potassium ferrocyanide (1 mM)). Emergence of flies, food intake by larvae, and pupation h...
متن کاملNeuronal expression of a newly identified Drosophila melanogaster G protein alpha 0 subunit.
Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) mediate signals between activated cell-surface receptors and cellular effectors. A bovine G-protein alpha-subunit cDNA has been used to isolate similar sequences from Drosophila genomic and cDNA libraries. One class, which we call DG alpha 0, hybridized to position 47A on the second chromosome of Drosophila. The nucleotide sequence of the protein...
متن کاملDevelopmental characterization of a Drosophila RNA-binding protein homologous to the human systemic lupus erythematosus-associated La/SS-B autoantigen.
Patients with humoral autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjögren's syndrome contain antibodies in their sera directed against certain normal cellular components such as the La/SS-B autoantigen, an RNA-binding protein believed to function as a putative processor of RNA polymerase III precursor transcripts. We have identified cDNA clones from the fruit fly Drosophila mel...
