A complementary DNA (cDNA) clone that encodes phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase (PI 4-kinase) was isolated from a rat brain cDNA library. The deduced amino acid sequence of 697 residues revealed that the protein contains two putative transmembrane sequences and that the N-terminal part of the protein has several sequences representing potential phosphorylation sites for cAMP- and calmodulin-dependent kinase. The C-terminal region is probably a phosphotransferase domain homologous to the kinase region of protein kinase family proteins. Specific antibody against the protein expressed in Escherichia coli successfully immunoprecipitated rat brain PI 4-kinase. The messenger RNA for PI 4-kinase was found predominantly in brain and rat neural cell lines. This PI kinase may play a specific role in neural signal transduction.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon

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
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

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.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
