We amplified the cDNA encoding the feline FcgammaRIIIA (CD16) homologue from peripheral blood mononuclear cells by polymerase chain reaction and cloned two forms of FCGR3A cDNA. Sequencing analysis revealed that the open reading frame of feline FCGR3A cDNA consists of 750 or 747 base pairs encoding 250 or 249 amino acid residues, respectively. Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequence of feline FCGR3A cDNA with those of other mammalians' homologues revealed that the extracellular domain has a relatively low homology. However, the cytoplasmic domain contained an 8-amino acid motif, Leu-Phe-Val-Val-Asp-Thr-Gly-Leu, which was considered to interact with an accessory molecule such as the gamma chain of Fc receptors for IgE to form heterodimeric complexes.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.

D003001 Cloning, Molecular The insertion of recombinant DNA molecules from prokaryotic and/or eukaryotic sources into a replicating vehicle, such as a plasmid or virus vector, and the introduction of the resultant hybrid molecules into recipient cells without altering the viability of those cells. Molecular Cloning
D000595 Amino Acid Sequence The order of amino acids as they occur in a polypeptide chain. This is referred to as the primary structure of proteins. It is of fundamental importance in determining PROTEIN CONFORMATION.

D016133 Polymerase Chain Reaction In vitro method for producing large amounts of specific DNA or RNA fragments of defined length and sequence from small amounts of short oligonucleotide flanking sequences (primers). The essential steps include thermal denaturation of the double-stranded target molecules, annealing of the primers to their complementary sequences, and extension of the annealed primers by enzymatic synthesis with DNA polymerase. The reaction is efficient, specific, and extremely sensitive. Uses for the reaction include disease diagnosis, detection of difficult-to-isolate pathogens, mutation analysis, genetic testing, DNA sequencing, and analyzing evolutionary relationships.
