Sequences of Ly-5 cDNA: isoform-related diversity of Ly-5 mRNA.
The Ly-5 system of the mouse is expressed exclusively by hematopoietic cells and comprises a series of glycoprotein isoforms that typify different hematopoietic cell lineages. The 200-kDa isoform of T cells and the 220-kDa isoform of B cells are known to differ in peptide composition. The complete 1152 amino acid sequence of the 200-kDa isoform protein deduced from cDNA sequence appears to comprise a leader sequence of some 30 residues, an external N-terminal domain of 370 residues, a probably single transmembrane domain of 22 residues, and an unusually large cytoplasmic domain of 730 residues. Both the external and cytoplasmic domains include regions of internal homology suggestive of evolution from a smaller ancestral gene. RNA transfer blotting has previously shown that B-cell mRNA for Ly-5 is larger than T-cell mRNA. S1 nuclease protection mapping with Ly-5 cDNA probes suggests that this difference can be ascribed to interpolation of an extra B-cell sequence located at the 5' end of B-cell mRNA, probably immediately following the leader sequence. From restriction mapping of overlapping Ly-5 genomic clones spanning 60 kilobases it is concluded that Ly-5 isoforms are generated by differential processing of transcripts of a single gene, rather than from a family of linked Ly-5 genes.
