Abstract
Two cDNAs encoding the receptor for murine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) were isolated from a CDM8 expression library of mouse myeloid leukemia NFS-60 cells, and their nucleotide sequences were determined. Murine G-CSF receptor expressed in COS cells could bind G-CSF with an affinity and specificity similar to that of the native receptor expressed by mouse NFS-60 cells. The amino acid sequence encoded by the cDNAs has demonstrated that murine G-CSF receptor is an 812 amino acid polypeptide (Mr, 90,814) with a single transmembrane domain. The extracellular domain consists of 601 amino acids with a region of 220 amino acids that shows a remarkable similarity to rat prolactin receptor. The cytoplasmic domain of the G-CSF receptor shows a significant similarity with parts of the cytoplasmic domain of murine interleukin-4 receptor. A 3.7 kb mRNA coding for the G-CSF receptor could be detected in mouse myeloid leukemia NFS-60 and WEHI-3B D+ cells as well as in bone marrow cells.Entities:
