Isolation of a human liver ligandin cDNA clone and demonstration of sequence homology at ligandin loci in rats and humans.

Abstract:

:Using a monospecific antibody to the major cytosolic glutathione-S-transferase of human liver, we have isolated a cDNA clone from a human liver cDNA expression vector library in lambda gt11. The clone cross-hybridizes with a rat liver ligandin (glutathione-S-transferase 1-2) cDNA probe. The clone has an insert of 1.25 kb, a size sufficient to code for the 23 kilodalton subunit of human GST. Digestion of the insert with Hinf I produced three fragments (0.8 kb, 0.4 kb and 0.1 kb). A similar pattern of multiple bands was observed when rat liver GST1-2 cDNA probe was used for Southern blot analysis of Pst digests of rat and human genomic DNAs. These data suggest that these two functionally similar proteins exhibit sequence homology between their respective cDNAs and at ligandin loci, in spite of the lack of immuno-crossreactivity between them.
