Department of Medical Genetics, Osaka University, Japan.

Rae-38, a cDNA clone isolated from mouse embryonal carcinoma F9 cells, was sequenced, and the deduced RAE-38 protein showed about 86% homology to pig 3-hydroxyacyl CoA dehydrogenase (HCDH; EC 1.1.1.35). This clone can be used to elucidate the regulatory mechanism of HCDH gene expression in mammals.

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.

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.

D013552	Swine	Any of various animals that constitute the family Suidae and comprise stout-bodied, short-legged omnivorous mammals with thick skin, usually covered with coarse bristles, a rather long mobile snout, and small tail. Included are the genera Babyrousa, Phacochoerus (wart hogs), and Sus, the latter containing the domestic pig (see SUS SCROFA).

D015094	3-Hydroxyacyl CoA Dehydrogenases	Enzymes that reversibly catalyze the oxidation of a 3-hydroxyacyl CoA to 3-ketoacyl CoA in the presence of NAD. They are key enzymes in the oxidation of fatty acids and in mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis.	beta-Hydroxyacyl Dehydrogenases,3 Hydroxyacyl CoA Dehydrogenases,CoA Dehydrogenases, 3-Hydroxyacyl,Dehydrogenases, 3-Hydroxyacyl CoA,Dehydrogenases, beta-Hydroxyacyl,beta Hydroxyacyl Dehydrogenases
D016415	Sequence Alignment	The arrangement of two or more amino acid or base sequences from an organism or organisms in such a way as to align areas of the sequences sharing common properties. The degree of relatedness or homology between the sequences is predicted computationally or statistically based on weights assigned to the elements aligned between the sequences. This in turn can serve as a potential indicator of the genetic relatedness between the organisms.
