    Abstract

    A cDNA library was constructed from COLO 205 and 1056 clones randomly selected from this library were partially sequenced. Two hundred and two (38.4%) out of 526 independent genes had more than 80% similarity to the genes reported in GenBank. In Northern blot analysis, 96 out of 98 genes were shown to be expressed at the same level in colon and lung carcinoma cell lines and control fibroblasts. Only two clones, including human synovial phospholipase A-2 and a homologue to rabbit calgizzarin, were expressed at different levels among these cell lines. The full sequence of human calgizzarin was determined and its expression was remarkably elevated in colorectal cancers compared with that in normal colorectal mucosa.
