Abstract

hnRNP K 단백질은 hnRNP 복합체를 구성하는 핵단백질들 중의 하나이며 시토신이 많은 RNA/DNA sequence에 잘 결합한다. 이 단백질은 핵 내에서만 머무르지 않고 핵과 세포질을 왕복하는 특징을 지니고 있다. hnRNP K의 기능을 조사하기 위하여 우선 hnRNP K와 상호 결합하는 세포내 단백질을 찾아내고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 이스트 two-hybrid 시스템을 사용하여 HeLa CDNA librar를 탐색하였다. 그 결과 얻은 클론들 중에는 사람의 hnRNP E1 (poly(rC) binding protein 1) cDNA (GenBank accession number XM_031585) 클론이 포함되어 있었다. 본 논문에서는 이스트 two-hybrid 시스템과 in vitro에서의 생화학적 실험을 통하여 hnRNP E1은 hnRNP K와 특이적으로 상호 결합한다는 것을 밝혔다. The heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K (hnRNP K) is a component of hnRNP complexes. This protein binds strongly to cytidine-rich RNA/DNA sequences. It is a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein. To investigate the functions of hnRNP K, I searched for hnRNP K-interacting proteins in HeLa cDNA library using a yeast two-hybrid screening system. One of the cDNA clones is identical to human hnRNP E1 (poly(rC) binding protein 1) cDNA (GenBank accession number XM_031585). In this study, hnRNP K is shown to specifically interact with hnRNP E1 in yeast two-hybrid system and in vitro biochemical assay.
