Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Rat aldolase C cDNA was inserted in an Escherichia coli expression vector to construct the rat aldolase C expression plasmid, pRAC42. This plasmid produces active rat aldolase C in the transfected E. coli host cells. The characteristics of the purified enzyme, e.g. mol. wt, electrophoretic mobilities and kinetic parameters, are indistinguishable from those of authentic rat brain aldolase C. Three different tetrameric hybrid forms, C3A, C2A2 and CA3, in addition to C4 and A4, were found to be produced in the host cell when E.coli was co-transfected with expression plasmids for rat aldolase C and for human aldolase A. Similarly, the hybrid forms, C3B, C2B2 and CB3, in addition to C4 and B4, were also produced in the cells when co-transfected with the plasmids for rat aldolase C and for human aldolase B.
