Regulation of a bifunctional mRNA results in synthesis of secreted and nuclear probasin.

Abstract:

:Probasin, a rat prostatic protein, is statistically related to members of a protein family that includes serum, cellular, and nuclear proteins. In vivo, probasin appears both in the secretions and in the nucleus of prostatic epithelial cells. Using primer extension and S1 nuclease protection assays we detected only one probasin mRNA. Thus, the localization of this protein to two separate cellular regions must be encoded by this one mRNA. Furthermore, in vitro translation of synthetic probasin mRNA demonstrated that a protein containing a signal peptide and a protein lacking a signal peptide were synthesized by initiation at different AUG codons. These data are consistent with a mechanism of translational regulation of a eukaryotic bifunctional mRNA.

  • Molecular cloning and sequence analysis of expansins--a highly conserved, multigene family of proteins that mediate cell wall extension in plants.

    abstract::Expansins are unusual proteins discovered by virtue of their ability to mediate cell wall extension in plants. We identified cDNA clones for two cucumber expansins on the basis of peptide sequences of proteins purified from cucumber hypocotyls. The expansin cDNAs encode related proteins with signal peptides predicted ...
