The myocyte enhancer factor-2 (MEF2) gene family in vertebrates includes MEF2A, MEF2B, MEF2C, and MEF2D, which have important functions in the regulation of muscular growth and development. To investigate their temporal–spatial expression and functions in the goat, these genes were cloned (accession nos. JN967621–24) and their expression patterns characterized at five postnatal stages (3, 30, 60,...
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is a key enzyme in lipid metabolism and is transported by glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored high-density lipoprotein-binding protein 1 (GPIHBP1) from the interstitial spaces to the capillary lumen. Here, we cloned a cDNA and the genomic locus of the porcine GPIHBP1 gene, and investigated its tissue expression pattern and its genetic effects on adipose traits. Porcine GPIHBP1...
Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) has become an important crop during the last 30years. In addition to a high lipid level, the seeds also have a significant protein content, which constitutes 20–25% of the dry seed weight. The synthesis of storage proteins is primarily controlled at transcriptional level and seed-specific expression has been shown to be conferred upon the promoter regions of many storage...
Annexin, Ca2+ or phospholipid binding proteins, with many family members are distributed throughout all tissues during plant growth and development. Annexins participate in a number of physiological processes, such as exocytosis, cell elongation, nodule formation in legumes, maturation and stress response. Six different full-length cDNAs and two partial-length cDNAs of peanut, (AnnAh1, AnnAh2, AnnAh3,...
Telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) is the catalytic subunit of telomerase complex that regulates telomerase activity to maintain telomere length for all animals with linear chromosomes. As the Mus musculus (MM) laboratory mouse has very long telomeres compared to humans, a potential alternative animal model for telomere research is the Peromyscus leucopus (PL) mouse that has telomere lengths...
p53 plays a pivotal role in maintaining the genomic integrity of the cell and has an important role in cellular transformation. We isolated and cloned a full length p53 cDNA (Bp53) from water buffalo in expression vectors designed to generate tagged proteins with FLAG or GFP. Bp53 was found to be 1161 nucleotide long and codes for 386 amino acid residues with 79% homology with human p53 containing...
Vertebrate gamma-interferon inducible lysosomal thiol reductase (GILT) is an IFN-γ-inducible protein and is involved in MHCII-restricted antigen processing and cross-presentation of MHCI-restricted antigens in adaptive immunity. Outside of the endocytic MHC pathway, GILT regulates the cellular redox state, inhibits T cell activation, neutralizes extracellular pathogens and is also a host factor of...
