A Cytochrome‐b5‐Containing Fusion Protein Similar to Plant Acyl Lipid Desaturases

A Cytochrome‐b5‐Containing Fusion Protein Similar to Plant Acyl Lipid Desaturases The similarity between oleate and linoleate desaturase sequences from several plants was used lo construct degenerate oligonucleotide primers for PCR experiments with cDNA transcribed from mRNA of ripening sunflower embryos. A DNA fragment was amplified and sequenced. Specific primers derived from this partial sequence were used for rapid amplification of the 3′‐ and 5′‐ends of this cDNA. With appropriate primers derived from these sequences, a full‐length clone of 1377 bp was amplified by PCR which, after sequencing, showed an open reading frame of 458 amino acids corresponding to a putative protein of about 52 kDa. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png The Febs Journal Wiley

Abstract

The similarity between oleate and linoleate desaturase sequences from several plants was used lo construct degenerate oligonucleotide primers for PCR experiments with cDNA transcribed from mRNA of ripening sunflower embryos. A DNA fragment was amplified and sequenced. Specific primers derived from this partial sequence were used for rapid amplification of the 3′‐ and 5′‐ends of this cDNA. With appropriate primers derived from these sequences, a full‐length clone of 1377 bp was amplified by PCR which, after sequencing, showed an open reading frame of 458 amino acids corresponding to a putative protein of about 52 kDa.
