A human actin cDNA clone pGF3 isolated from a fetal skeletal muscle cDNA library is described. The insert cDNA is homologous to skeletal muscle alpha-actin as judged by restriction mapping and nucleotide sequencing. The recombinant contains a substantial portion of the coding and the complete 3'-untranslated region. Comparison of the 3' ends of human and rat skeletal muscle and human cardiac alpha-actins reveals little homology between different types of actin genes in man but marked conservation of this region in the skeletal muscle actins of man and rat.
本文描述了从胎儿骨骼肌cDNA文库中分离得到的一个人类肌动蛋白cDNA克隆pGF3。通过限制性图谱分析和核苷酸测序判断,插入的cDNA与骨骼肌α-肌动蛋白同源。该重组体包含编码区的大部分以及完整的3'非翻译区。对人类和大鼠骨骼肌以及人类心脏α-肌动蛋白3'末端的比较显示,人类不同类型的肌动蛋白基因之间同源性较低,但该区域在人类和大鼠的骨骼肌肌动蛋白中具有显著的保守性。
