T. Ishii et al., CLONING OF MOUSE PROLIDASE CDNA - PREDOMINANT EXPRESSION OF PROLIDASEMESSENGER-RNA IN KIDNEY, Biochimica et biophysica acta, N. Gene structure and expression, 1308(1), 1996, pp. 15-16
We cloned mouse prolidase cDNA from a mouse liver cDNA library. Homolo
gy to human prolidase is 83.2% at the nucleotide level and 87.2% at th
e amino acid level. Northern blot analysis showed that while prolidase
mRNA was transcribed in brain, heart, liver, and muscle, it was predo
minantly transcribed in kidney.
