Abstract:
cDNA sequences encoding homologs of cyclin B and Cdk1/Cdc2 were isolated from bovine blastocyst-stage embryos produced in vitro. The bovine CycB sequence is 1548 nucleotides (nt) in length and contains the conserved motif 'FLRRXSK', characteristic for known cyclin B proteins. The deduced protein contains 427 amino acids (aa) and has an estimated mass of 47,653 Da. The bovine cdk1/cdc2 sequence is 1275 nt in length and contains the highly conserved motif 'EGVPSTAIREISLLKE'. The deduced protein contains 297 aa (33,931 Da).
