| abstractText | With the aim of identifying genes involved in cartilage differentiation, we have used a subtractive hybridization strategy with cDNAs from a chondrocytic cell line (MC615) and mRNAs from a mesenchymal precursor cell line (10T1/2). We have isolated a cDNA clone representing a novel mouse gene. The predicted 368-amino acid protein, designated ZF-12, contains four C(2)H(2)-type zinc finger motifs and one region homologous to the LeR domain, a finger-associated structural domain. ZF-12 mRNAs are expressed during embryonic development and in different organs in adult, including rib cartilage. These data suggest that ZF-12 might play an important role not only in cartilage differentiation, but also in basic cellular processes. |
