Nucleotide sequence of a Drosophila melanogaster cDNA encoding a calnexin homologue
Gene.
.
Abstract
A cDNA which encodes a calnexin (Cnx)-like protein from Drosophila melanogaster has been characterized. The deduced amino acid sequence shares several regions of homology with Cnx from other sources with two conserved motifs each repeated four times. The gene was found to be transcribed in various tissues and at all developmental stages. We have mapped the gene at chromosomal position 99A and we have also mapped the related gene coding for Drosophila calreticulin at 85E.
