Molecular cloning and nucleotide sequence analysis of rat PCNA/cyclin cDNA
Nucleic Acids Symposium Series
|January 1, 1986
Abstract:
The 'proliferating cell nuclear antigen' (PCNA), also known as cyclin, accumulates in the nuclei of dividing and transformed cells and reacts with autoantibodies from certain lupus patients. A full-length cDNA (1195 bp) clone encoding PCNA/cyclin was isolated from rat thymocyte cDNA library. The nucleotide sequence reveals an open reading frame of 783 nucleotides coding for 28.7 kD protein. The predicted amino acid sequence and composition are in excellent agreement with the published protein data of rabbit PCNA. We report the entire nucleotide sequence of the cDNA and complete amino acid sequence for rat PCNA/cyclin.
