| abstractText | Two types of C3G cDNA were isolated from mouse 3T3-L1 adipocyte cDNA library. A 114-bp sequence in the middle of C3G cDNA is deleted in the short type cDNA. By RT-PCR analysis, it was found that these two types of C3G mRNA existed in all the mouse tissues. Sequence comparison revealed 88% nucleotide sequence identity between mouse and human C3G cDNA. Comparison of mouse C3G cDNA with the human genome database suggested that this 114-bp sequence comprised an entire exon, and it is confirmed by PCR analysis using mouse genomic DNA and cDNA template. These results indicate that two C3G mRNAs and proteins result from alternative RNA splicing. |
