Molecular cloning and sequence analysis of cDNA for human transferrin.

Abstract:

:A cDNA clone for human transferrin was identified from a human liver cDNA library by pre-screening with different ss-cDNA probes against length-fractionated liver mRNAs, positive hybridization-selection and nucleotide sequence analysis. The insert was of 1 kb, encoding human transferrin from aminoacid 403 through the COOH terminus, with a 3' non coding region of 166 nucleotides. This insert hybridized with a single major mRNA species of about 2.4 kb and several genomic DNA restriction fragments. Hybridization of the Southern blots with different parts of the transferrin insert and at different stringences suggest that the various bands observed correspond to splice sites inside one gene rather than to hybridization to several related genes. Finally, a single or a low number of transferrin gene copies seem to exist in the human genome.
