The complete amino-acid sequence of the cyclic GMP-gated channel from bovine retinal rod photoreceptors, deduced by cloning and sequencing its complementary DNA, shows that the protein contains several putative transmembrane segments, followed by a region that is similar to the cyclic GMP-binding domains of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase. Expression of the complementary DNA produces cyclic GMP-gated channel activity in Xenopus oocytes. 相似文献

Primary structure and functional expression from complementary DNA of a brain calcium channel. 总被引:43,自引:0,他引:43

The primary structure of a voltage-dependent calcium channel from rabbit brain has been deduced by cloning and sequencing the complementary DNA. Calcium channel activity expressed from the cDNA is dramatically increased by coexpression of the alpha 2 and beta subunits, known to be associated with the dihydropyridine receptor. This channel is a high voltage-activated calcium channel that is insensitive both to nifedipine and to omega-conotoxin. We suggest that it is expressed predominantly in cerebellar Purkinje cells and granule cells. 相似文献

Primary structure and functional expression of a developmentally regulated skeletal muscle chloride channel. 总被引:44,自引:0,他引:44
Skeletal muscle is unusual in that 70-85% of resting membrane conductance is carried by chloride ions. This conductance is essential for membrane-potential stability, as its block by 9-anthracene-carboxylic acid and other drugs causes myotonia. Fish electric organs are developmentally derived from skeletal muscle, suggesting that mammalian muscle may express a homologue of the Torpedo mamorata electroplax chloride channel. We have now cloned the complementary DNA encoding a rat skeletal muscle chloride channel by homology screening to the Cl- channel from Torpedo. It encodes a 994-amino-acid protein which is about 54% identical to the Torpedo channel and is predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle. Messenger RNA amounts in that tissue increase steeply in the first 3-4 weeks after birth, in parallel with the increase in muscle Cl- conductance. Expression from cRNA in Xenopus oocytes leads to 9-anthracene-carboxylic acid-sensitive currents with time and voltage dependence typical for macroscopic muscle Cl- conductance. This and the functional destruction of this channel in mouse myotonia suggests that we have cloned the major skeletal muscle chloride channel. 相似文献

Primary structure and functional expression of the cardiac dihydropyridine-sensitive calcium channel 总被引:71,自引:0,他引:71

In cardiac muscle, where Ca2+ influx across the sarcolemma is essential for contraction, the dihydropyridine (DHP)-sensitive L-type calcium channel represents the major entry pathway of extracellular Ca2+. We have previously elucidated the primary structure of the rabbit skeletal muscle DHP receptor by cloning and sequencing the complementary DNA. An expression plasmid carrying this cDNA, microinjected into cultured skeletal muscle cells from mice with muscular dysgenesis, has been shown to restore both excitation-contraction coupling and slow calcium current missing from these cells, so that a dual role for the DHP receptor in skeletal muscle transverse tubules is suggested. We report here the complete amino-acid sequence of the rabbit cardiac DHP receptor, deduced from the cDNA sequence. We also show that messenger RNA derived from the cardiac DHP receptor cDNA is sufficient to direct the formation of a functional DHP-sensitive calcium channel in Xenopus oocytes. Furthermore, higher calcium-channel activity is observed when mRNA specific for the polypeptide of relative molecular mass approximately 140,000 (alpha 2-subunit) associated with skeletal muscle DHP receptor is co-injected. 相似文献

Primary structure and expression of a functional human glucocorticoid receptor cDNA 总被引:50,自引:0,他引:50
S M Hollenberg C Weinberger E S Ong G Cerelli A Oro R Lebo E B Thompson M G Rosenfeld R M Evans 《Nature》1985,318(6047):635-641
Identification of complementary DNAs encoding the human glucocorticoid receptor predicts two protein forms, of 777 (alpha) and 742 (beta) amino acids, which differ at their carboxy termini. The proteins contain a cysteine/lysine/arginine-rich region which may define the DNA-binding domain. Pure radiolabelled glucocorticoid receptor, synthesized in vitro, is immunoreactive and possesses intrinsic steroid-binding activity characteristic of the native glucocorticoid receptor. 相似文献

Primary structure of Torpedo marmorata chloride channel isolated by expression cloning in Xenopus oocytes 总被引:27,自引:0,他引:27
A complementary DNA encoding a voltage-gated chloride channel from Torpedo marmorata electric organ was cloned by expressing hybrid-depleted messenger RNA in Xenopus oocytes. The predicted protein has a sequence of 805 amino acids containing several putative membrane-spanning domains. Expression of the protein in Xenopus oocytes shows that it is sufficient for channel function. 相似文献

Primary structure of the receptor for calcium channel blockers from skeletal muscle 总被引:28,自引:0,他引:28

The complete amino-acid sequence of the receptor for dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers from rabbit skeletal muscle is predicted by cloning and sequence analysis of DNA complementary to its messenger RNA. Structural and sequence similarities to the voltage-dependent sodium channel suggest that in the transverse tubule membrane of skeletal muscle the dihydropyridine receptor may act both as voltage sensor in excitation-contraction coupling and as a calcium channel. 相似文献

Primary structure and expression from complementary DNA of skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor 总被引:85,自引:0,他引:85

The sequence of 5,037 amino acids composing the ryanodine receptor from rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum has been deduced by cloning and sequencing the complementary DNA. The predicted structure suggests that the calcium release channel activity resides in the C-terminal region of the receptor molecule, whereas the remaining portion constitutes the 'foot' structure spanning the junctional gap between the sarcoplasmic reticulum and the transverse tubule. 相似文献

Primary structure and expression of a product from cut, a locus involved in specifying sensory organ identity in Drosophila 总被引:31,自引:0,他引:31
In the absence of cut gene activity in Drosophila, external sensory organs are transformed into chordotonal organs. Here we show that the cut locus encodes a large protein containing a homoeodomain and is expressed in nuclei of cells in external sensory organs but not in cells within chordotonal organs. 相似文献

Selective antagonism of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5HT) and noradrenaline transport by antidepressants is a key element in the 'amine' hypothesis of affective disorders. Uptake and/or transport sites of 5HT have been reported to be reduced in platelets of patients suffering from depression and in post-mortem brain samples of depressed patients and suicide victims. To date there has been little molecular information available on the structure and regulation of 5HT transporters. Using the polymerase chain reaction with degenerate oligonucleotides derived from two highly conserved regions of the transporters for noradrenaline and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), we have identified a large family of related gene products expressed in rodent brain. One of these products hybridizes to a single 3.7-kilobase RNA restricted to rat midbrain and brainstem, where it is highly enriched within the serotonergic raphe complex. Transfection with a single 2.3-kilobase brainstem complementary DNA clone is sufficient to confer expression of a Na(+)-dependent 5HT transporter upon nonneural cells, with transport selectively and potently antagonized by 5HT uptake-specific antidepressants, including paroxetine, citalopram and fluoxetine. 相似文献

X-ray structure of a protein-conducting channel 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A conserved heterotrimeric membrane protein complex, the Sec61 or SecY complex, forms a protein-conducting channel, allowing polypeptides to be transferred across or integrated into membranes. We report the crystal structure of the complex from Methanococcus jannaschii at a resolution of 3.2 A. The structure suggests that one copy of the heterotrimer serves as a functional translocation channel. The alpha-subunit has two linked halves, transmembrane segments 1-5 and 6-10, clamped together by the gamma-subunit. A cytoplasmic funnel leading into the channel is plugged by a short helix. Plug displacement can open the channel into an 'hourglass' with a ring of hydrophobic residues at its constriction. This ring may form a seal around the translocating polypeptide, hindering the permeation of other molecules. The structure also suggests mechanisms for signal-sequence recognition and for the lateral exit of transmembrane segments of nascent membrane proteins into lipid, and indicates binding sites for partners that provide the driving force for translocation. 相似文献

Purified dihydropyridine-binding site from skeletal muscle t-tubules is a functional calcium channel 总被引:34,自引:0,他引:34
Many excitable cells contain at least two different voltage-dependent Ca channels (L- and T-type). The cardiac, slow, L-type Ca channel is further modulated by cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation, which increases the probability of it being open, and is readily blocked by Ca channel blockers including dihydropyridines and phenylalkylamines. The tritiated congeners of these blockers bind in vitro to sites which have the same pharmacological characteristics as those observed in vivo, that is, stereospecific and allosteric interaction between distinct sites. The dihydropyridine-binding site purified from skeletal muscle t-tubules contains three peptides of relative molecular mass (Mr) 142,000 (142K), 56K and 31K. The cAMP kinase incorporates one mol phosphate per mol of the 142K peptide and binding of (+)PN-200/110, a potent Ca antagonist, is allosterically affected by D-cis-diltiazem and verapamil. The purified dihydropyridine-receptor complex has also been incorporated into phospholipid bilayer membranes. Here, we show for the first time that the complex can be reconstituted to form a functional 20-pS Ca channel that retains the principal regulatory, biochemical and pharmacological properties of membrane-bound L-type Ca channels. 相似文献

Primary structure and expression of bovine poly(A) polymerase 总被引:26,自引:0,他引:26
Poly(A) polymerase has a critical role in the synthesis of messenger RNA in eukaryotic cells. The isolation and characterization of complementary DNAs encoding bovine poly(A) polymerase is described here. The predicted sequences of the mRNA and protein reveal features that provide insights into how the enzyme functions and how it might be regulated. Poly(A) polymerase expressed from a cloned cDNA is fully functional in in vitro assays, and mutational analyses have identified a putative regulatory domain that enhances, but is not essential for, activity. 相似文献

The primary structure of the poliovirus genome has been determined. The RNA molecule is 7,433 nucleotides long, polyadenylated at the 3' terminus, and covalently linked to a small protein (VPg) at the 5' terminus. An open reading frame of 2,207 consecutive triplets spans over 89% of the nucleotide sequence and codes for the viral polyprotein NCVPOO. Twelve viral polypeptides have been mapped by amino acid sequence analysis and were found to be proteolytic cleavage products of the polyprotein, cleavages occurring predominantly at Gln-Gly pairs. 相似文献
