Abstract:
A cDNA encoding rabbit endothelin-1 (ET-1) was isolated by plaque hybridization from a rabbit inferior vena caval endothelial cell lambda gt11 cDNA library using human ET-1 cDNA as the hybridization probe. DNA sequence analysis indicates that mature 21 amino acid rabbit ET-1 is derived from a 202 amino acid precursor, via a 39 amino acid intermediate 'big' ET-1.
