The major kidney band 3 gene transcript predicts an amino-terminal truncated band 3 polypeptide.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have characterized multiple transcripts from the band 3 gene expressed in rat and mouse kidney. In each species, the major transcript lacks sequence from the first three exons of the band 3 gene. The murine transcript predicts a kidney band 3 polypeptide with a truncated amino terminus, lacking the first 79 amino acids of erythroid band 3. When expressed in Xenopus oocytes this truncated band 3 functions in anion transport.

Primary structure of the rat kidney band 3 anion exchange protein deduced from a cDNA.
A rat kidney cDNA library was screened using an oligonucleotide hybridization probe derived from an amino acid sequence of the mouse erythrocyte Band 3 Cl-/HCO3- exchanger. Ten cDNAs representing a single class of mRNA and encoding the kidney Band 3 anion exchanger were isolated. Analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence revealed that kidney Band 3 is a truncated version of erythrocyte Band 3...
متن کاملAlternative primary structures in the transmembrane domain of the chicken erythroid anion transporter.
Isolation and characterization of the chicken erythroid anion transporter (band 3) cDNA clone, pCHB3-1, revealed that the chicken erythroid band 3 polypeptide is 844 amino acids in length with a predicted mass of 109,000 daltons. This polypeptide is composed of a hydrophilic N-terminal cytoplasmic domain and a hydrophobic C-terminal transmembrane domain. The approximately 90 N-terminal amino ac...

The Escherichia coli gsk gene encoding guanosine kinase was cloned from the Kohara gene library by complementation of the E. coli gsk-1 mutant allele. The cloned DNA fragment was sequenced and shown to encode a putative polypeptide of 433 amino acids with a molecular mass of 48,113 Da. Minicell analysis established the subunit M(r) as 43,500. Primer extension analysis indicated the presence of ...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of a murine band 3-related cDNA from kidney and from a lymphoid cell line.
Anion exchange is a nearly ubiquitous cellular transport function which contributes to the regulation of cell pH and of cell volume. However, the only plasma membrane anion exchanger of known identity and sequence is erythroid band 3. Both hybridization and immunologic data support the presence of band 3-related mRNAs and proteins in nonerythroid tissues. We have used low stringency hybridizati...
متن کاملThe structure of the human red blood cell anion exchanger (EPB3, AE1, band 3) gene.
The structure and sequence of the human red blood cell anion exchanger (EPB3, AE1, band 3) gene was determined by analysis of genomic and cDNA clones. The gene extends over 18 kb and consists of 20 exons. The cDNA sequence comprises 4,906 nucleotides [excluding the poly(A) tail]. There is extensive similarity between the human and mouse AE1 gene, although the latter covers 17 kb. The additional...
