We have isolated and sequenced a cDNA clone corresponding to human liver cytochrome b5 mRNA. The 760 base pair (bp) sequence contains the complete coding and 3' non-translated regions plus 52 bp of 5' non-translated sequence. The derived amino acid…

We have isolated cDNA clones corresponding to partially processed human liver cytochrome b5 mRNAs. All the clones contained poly(A) sequences, and one clone had a shorter 3' non-translated sequence, indicating the use of an alternative poly(A)…

We have recently cloned a full-length cDNA encoding the rat hepatic cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase cytochrome P450 (P450c7) (Li, Y. C., Wang, D. P., and Chiang, J. Y. L. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 12012-12019), which catalyzes the rate-limiting…

Human liver cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7) cDNAs were isolated from a human liver cDNA library. A full-length cDNA has 2901 nucleotides which encode a typical P450 polypeptide of 504 amino acid residues. Two different sequences of codon 100,…

RNA extracted from rabbit leukocytes and reticulocytes was reverse transcribed and used in the Polymerase Chain Reaction technique along with primers designed to amplify the coding sequence of rabbit cytochrome b5. The resultant amplified products…

Using a synthetic 26 base pair (bp) oligonucleotide, we have screened a rabbit liver cDNA library in lambda gt11 and isolated a 1000 bp DNA clone corresponding to cytochrome b5 mRNA. The clone contains the complete coding region and long 5' and 3'…

A cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase gene containing 8 kb of the 5'-flanking region and 5 kb of the transcription region which covers exons 1 to 5 was isolated from a rat genomic library. The 2015 bp nucleotide sequence 5'-upstream from the start codon…

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2) is a class 3 G protein-coupled receptor and an important mediator of synaptic activity in the central nervous system. Previous work demonstrated that mGluR2 couples to pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive G…

Neurohypophysial peptides are important regulators of homeostasis, reproduction and behavior. We have sequenced a zebrafish cDNA representing isotocin-neurophysin (IT-NP) mRNA. The developmental expression pattern of zebrafish IT-NP mRNA was…

A ligand epitope antigen presentation system (LEAPS) heteroconjugate vaccine containing a CTL epitope (H1) from the HSV-1 immediate early protein ICP27 (322-332) and a peptide sequence (J) from beta-2-microglobulin (35-50) elicited protection from…

Previous studies have shown that tachykinin peptide ligands of the tachykinin NK1 receptor exhibit functional selectivity with respect to signal activation and desensitization. The differences are most dramatic between the naturally occurring…

Lateral ventricular administration of angiotensin II (ANG II) produces potent dipsogenic effects in water-sated rats. ANG II seems to require functional voltage-gated calcium channels on neurons throughout circumventricular brain sites to exert its…

Total RNA was extracted from a variety of rabbit tissues and reverse transcribed for use in the polymerase chain reaction technique. Using primers designed to amplify the membrane-bound liver cytochrome b5 cDNA, products of two sizes were observed.…

We have sequenced about 5 kb of the Escherichia coli chromosome downstream from the tolC gene, looking for a topoisomerase gene. This region does not contain a topoisomerase gene.

Using a combination of standard cDNA library screening techniques and the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) we have isolated and sequenced DNA fragments corresponding to the human reticulocyte cytochrome b5 mRNA. The reticulocyte specific sequence…
