Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF beta 1) has been purified from a number of different sources and has a broad species specificity. To deduce the complete amino acid sequence of bovine TGF beta 1 we have isolated cDNA clones encoding the protein from a bovine fibropapilloma library using a human cDNA probe. Sequence analysis of two independent cDNA clones revealed that the 112 amino acids corresponding to bovine TGF beta 1 are identical to those of the human and porcine proteins. This unusually high degree of conservation in the primary structure of the human and bovine proteins reflects the strong evolutionary constraints for maintenance of structure and function of the molecule. As in the human, murine, and porcine systems, the mature form of TGF beta 1 is derived by proteolytic cleavage of a larger precursor. Small differences in amino acid sequence were observed in the portion of the precursor that does not include mature TGF beta 1, although 92% of the residues are still conserved. A 2.25 kilobase (kb) mRNA was identified in total bovine wart and bone RNA, whereas no message was detected in polyadenylated spleen or brain RNA. In addition to the major 2.25 kb message, we observed a 1.9 kb transcript in poly(A+) RNA from wart tissue.

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).

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.

D013045 Species Specificity The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.
