Abstract

Recombinant cDNA clones that code for apolipoprotein B(apoB) were isolated from a rat liver cDNA library, using synthetic oligonucleotide probe derived from the sequence of human apoB cDNA. The nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of the rat apoB clone pRB5, 1.2 kb in length, showed 83% and 84% homology to those of human apoB. Northern blot analysis revealed that rat apoB cDNA probe cross-reacts with human and rabbit apoB mRNA sequences and the size of those mRNAs, approximately 15 kb long, were not discernibly different. In addition, apoB mRNA was abundant only in the liver and intestine. Finally, cholesterol feeding to rats for six weeks resulted in a several-fold increase in the level of apoB mRNA in the liver.
