目的:了解一个细胞凋亡相关新基因TFAR19在不同种属间的序列同源性。方法:利用表达序列标签(expresedsequencetag,EST)拼接技术、RTPCR、DNA序列测定技术及计算机分析技术。结果:首次成功进行了小鼠TFAR19cDNA编码区的cDNA克隆化和序列分析,发现小鼠和人TFAR19在核苷酸水平上有81.4%的同源性,在氨基酸水平上有高达96%的同源性。功能区分析发现,小鼠TFAR19cDNA序列含编码126个氨基酸的开放性读码框架,含1个可能的cAMP和cGMP依赖的蛋白激酶磷酸化位点,4个可能的PKC磷酸化位点。其C端的“EDDADY”序列与人DNA拓扑异构酶I141147位残基序列完全相同。结论:小鼠TFAR19是与人TFAR19高度同源的新基因,与DNA拓扑异构酶I可能有功能相关性。
OBJECTIVE: To understand the sequence homology of TFAR19, a novel apoptosis-related gene, between different species. Methods: Using expresedsequencetag (EST) splicing technique, RTPCR, DNA sequencing and computer analysis techniques. RESULTS: The cDNA cloning and sequence analysis of the mouse TFAR19 cDNA coding region was successfully performed for the first time. It was found that mouse and human TFAR19 have 81.4% homology at the nucleotide level and up to 96% at the amino acid level Homology. Functional domain analysis found that the mouse TFAR19 cDNA sequence contains an open reading frame of 126 amino acids containing one possible cAMP and cGMP dependent protein kinase phosphorylation sites and four possible PKC phosphorylation sites. Its C-terminal “EDDADY” sequence and human DNA topoisomerase I141 147 residue sequence is exactly the same. CONCLUSION: Mouse TFAR19 is a novel gene highly homologous to human TFAR19 and may be functionally related to DNA topoisomerase I.
