Abstract

Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to amplify and clone the regulatory subunit of mouse glutamate-cysteine ligase (Glclr) using primers adapted from the published rat Glclr cDNA sequence, and from mouse genomic DNA. Amplified cDNA was cloned into a plasmid vector, and additional RT-PCR reactions coupled with 3′ RACE were used to amplify and sequence 3′ regions covered by the rat primer. Comparison of the mouse Glclr cDNA sequence and predicted protein sequence with that of rat Glclr and human GLCLR revealed extensive homology in cDNA and amino acid sequences among these species.
