Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of canine prostate arginine esterase mRNA was determined using a 400 bp cDNA clone and primer‐extended cDNA transcripts for the 5′‐coding and noncoding regions. The mRNA contains 864 nucleotides encoding a protein of 236 amino acids preceded by 24 amino acids which constitutes both the signal and the zymogen peptides. The sequence indicates the presence of one potential glycosylation site. A high degree of homology was found between the canine enzyme and other members of the kallikrein family including human prostate specific antigen. The protein appears to be specified by a single gene.This publication has 29 references indexed in Scilit:
