Sequences coding for the cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains were removed from the cDNA of the human Golgi resident membrane protein beta 1,4 galactosyltransferase (gal-T). The remaining sequences coding for the stem and catalytical domains of this glycosyltransferase were fused to sequences coding for the yeast invertase signal sequence. The hybrid was inserted together with a constitutive yeast promoter and a terminator into a E. coli/yeast shuttle vector. Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain BT150 transformed with this new expression vector expressed enzymically active soluble enzyme, whereas no activity was detectable in mock-transformed yeasts. The enzyme product was identified by HPLC analysis and shown to correspond to the expected product N-acetyllactosamine.

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.
