Figure 47-10. Schematic diagram of the structure of human L-selectin. The extracellular portion contains an amino terminal domain homologous to C-type lectins and an adjacent epidermal growth factor-like domain. These are followed by a variable number of complement regulatory-like modules (numbered circles) and a transmembrane sequence (blackdiamond). A short cytoplasmic sequence (open rectangle) is at the carboxyl terminal. The structures of P- and E-selectin are similar to that shown except that they contain more complement-regulatory modules.The numbers of amino acids in L-, P-, and E- selectins, as deduced from the cDNA sequences, are 385,789, and 589, respectively.

The complete sequence of the pgaX gene has been determined. Seven introns are present in the gene which were all confirmed by cDNA sequencing. The introns are between 50 and 58 nt long, have fungal consensus splice sequences and all but one have in frame stop codons.

In humans, the structural gene locus is on chromosome 19 (M17), and the gene spans over 40 kilobases (kb) including 18 exons and 17 introns (W2, X2). Neu-roleukin, a protein that acts as both a neurotrophic factor and a lymphokine, has been isolated from mouse salivary glands (G7), and subsequently the primary structure of neuroleukin was found to be identical to that of GPI by comparison of the cDNA sequences (C7, FI). The cDNA sequence encodes 558 amino acid residues. The enzyme consists of two identical subunits with a molecular weight of approximately 63,000 and neuroleukin is active as a monomer. 

The structure and sequence of the catalytic moiety have been determined (06, V6, W6). The enzyme consists of 362 amino acids and 40,638 daltons of the protein predicted by the cDNA sequence. The ADA gene spans 32 kb and consists of 12 exons. The apparent promoter region of the gene lacks the TATA and CAAT sequences often found in eukaryotic promoters and is extremely G/C rich. The location of the ADA gene is on chromosome 20ql2-ql3.11 (Jl).

Next, the difference in the genomic and cDNA sequences of CBP between the F and +Y alleles were determined (Figure 24.5b) (Sakudoh et al. 2005, 2007). The F allele strain had at least two copies of the CBP gene, all of which could be classified into one of two types a F-a sequence...

The combination of GenBank cDNA sequence comparison and data from the public SNP database reveal the presence of several SNPs in MRP3, many of which involve non-synonymous amino acid changes (Table 9.3). These polymorphisms have not been functionally characterized and, therefore, the clinical pharmacological impact of such MRP3 variants remains unknown.
