The nucleotide sequence of a 916-bp human cDNA clone isolated from a human colon lambda gt11 cDNA library was determined. Sequence analysis showed this cDNA to have 88% homology to the nucleotide sequence of the heavy chain of rat clathrin. The deduced amino acid sequence was 98.7% identical to the rat sequence, a change of only four amino acids. The mRNA identified in both human and rat cells with the human clathrin clone revealed transcripts of approximately 6.5 kb, which is consistent with the predicted 180 kDa molecular weight of the clathrin heavy chain. Southern analysis of human/rodent somatic cell hybrids localized the human clathrin heavy chain gene (CLTC) to chromosome 17. Additional analyses using panels of human/rodent somatic cell hybrids with specific chromosomal translocations and deletions mapped the human clathrin heavy chain gene locus to 17q11-qter.

Gene Mapping,Linkage Mapping,Genome Mapping,Chromosome Mappings,Gene Mappings,Genome Mappings,Linkage Mappings,Mapping, Chromosome,Mapping, Gene,Mapping, Genome,Mapping, Linkage,Mappings, Chromosome,Mappings, Gene,Mappings, Genome,Mappings, Linkage
D002886 Chromosomes, Human, Pair 17 A specific pair of GROUP E CHROMOSOMES of the human chromosome classification. Chromosome 17
D002966 Clathrin The main structural coat protein of COATED VESICLES which play a key role in the intracellular transport between membranous organelles. Each molecule of clathrin consists of three light chains (CLATHRIN LIGHT CHAINS) and three heavy chains (CLATHRIN HEAVY CHAINS) that form a structure called a triskelion. Clathrin also interacts with cytoskeletal proteins.
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
D003106 Colon The segment of LARGE INTESTINE between the CECUM and the RECTUM. It includes the ASCENDING COLON; the TRANSVERSE COLON; the DESCENDING COLON; and the SIGMOID COLON. Appendix Epiploica,Taenia Coli,Omental Appendices,Omental Appendix,Appendices, Omental,Appendix, Omental
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).
