Abstract
The cell division cycle have been shown to be regulated by a closely-related family of protein kinases named CDKs (by cyclin-dependent kinases). Using a PCR-based cloning technique, we have isolated cDNAs encoding a human CDC2-related protein kinase. The full-length cDNA accommodates an open reading frame that does not contain any ATG initiation codon upstream of the sequence encoding the catalytic domain of this putative kinase. Three putative non-ATG initiation codons have been detected. Starting at the most 5' non-ATG initiation site, the encoded product is 316 amino acids long with a predicted molecular weight of 35.8 kDa. Analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence showed it to contain the XI subdomains present in all known protein kinases and a PSTAIRE-like motive, PISSLRE, which temporarily names this kinase. PISSLRE is most related to p58/GTA (55% identity in the catalytic domain), the galactosyl transferase associated protein, which has been shown to inhibit entry into S-phase when over-expressed in CHO cells. PISSLRE shares 38-45% identity with all CDKs and contains the regulatory Tyr and Thr residues present in most of the members of the CDK family of protein kinases, which suggests similar modes of regulation. PISSLRE is expressed in all human tissues tested, including those which contain high proportion of terminally differentiated cells. However, the levels of the PISSLRE transcripts are dissimilar among different tissues.
