Primary structure of crayfish visual pigment deduced from cDNA.

Abstract:

:The primary structure of opsin of the crayfish Procambarus clarkii has been deduced from the cDNA sequence. The opsin is composed of 376 amino acid residues including all the conservative residues characteristic of other members of the rhodopsin family. Comparison of sequences of all known opsins reveals that the major Drosophila rhodopsin is more similar to the crayfish rhodopsin than to the Drosophila UV-sensitive pigments. The phylogenetic trees of invertebrate opsins are constructed.

  • IRF-8/ICSBP and IRF-1 cooperatively stimulate mouse IL-12 promoter activity in macrophages.

    abstract::IRF-8/ICSBP and IRF-1 are IRF family members whose expression is induced in response to IFN-gamma in macrophages. IL-12 is a cytokine produced in macrophages that plays a critical role in host defense. IFN-gamma and bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induce IL-12p40 transcription, which is necessary for the production...
