A partial cDNA encoding 811 amino acids of connectin (titin), a giant elastic protein of muscle (3,000 kDa), was cloned from a chicken embryonic skeletal muscle cDNA library using antibodies to muscle connectin. The encoded product was the C terminal segment of connectin. The predicted sequences consisted of 5 type II motifs (immunoglobulin C2 type) separated by 5 interdomain insertions. One interdomain insertion had significant homology (RSP) to KSP repeats found in human cardiac C-terminal connectin and another had a high sequence homology to porin (67.7%; 31 amino acids).
利用针对肌肉连接蛋白的抗体,从鸡胚胎骨骼肌cDNA文库中克隆出了一个编码连接蛋白(肌联蛋白)811个氨基酸的部分cDNA,连接蛋白是一种巨大的肌肉弹性蛋白(3000 kDa)。编码产物为连接蛋白的C末端片段。预测序列由5个II型基序(免疫球蛋白C2型)组成,中间由5个结构域间插入序列隔开。其中一个结构域间插入序列与人类心脏C末端连接蛋白中的KSP重复序列具有显著同源性(RSP),另一个与孔蛋白具有高度序列同源性(67.7%;31个氨基酸)。
