Abstract

A cDNA encoding the nucleic acid-binding domain of the hnRNP C-type protein has been cloned by DNA-affinity screening of pituitary-derived expression libraries. An analysis revealed sequence identity with the human C-type cDNA and demonstrated the presence of a peptide sequence contained within the single-stranded DNA-binding protein, UP2, which was absent from the human cDNA. Structural analysis of the protein encoded by the rat cDNA demonstrated a net charge of + 15 with 14.56% and 6.33% lysines and arginines, respectively, and an amino acid sequence that is consistent with an extensive helix-loop-helix-turn-helix structure.
