Cloning and sequence analysis of cDNA for precursor of a crustacean hyperglycemic hormone.

W Weidemann1, J Gromoll, R Keller.   

Abstract

Crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) from Carcinus maenas, a 72 amino acid neuropeptide, originates in neurosecretory perikarya in the eyestalk ganglia. Poly (A)RNA was isolated from these perikarya and a cDNA library was prepared. Screening of 20,000 clones with a 26-mer oligonucleotide, corresponding to a partial sequence of CHH, yielded one positive clone with an insert of approximately 2,000 bp, which contained the complete coding sequence for a pre-pro CHH. This precursor consists of a putative 26 amino acid signal sequence, a 38 amino acid peptide of unknown function (Peptide C), and the CHH sequence at the carboxyl end. The CHH-sequence is flanked N-terminally by a Lys-Arg cleavage site and C-terminally by the tetrapeptide Gly-Arg-Lys-Lys which is followed by the stop codon.
