Abstract
On the basis of the known amino acid sequence of statherin, a human salivary protein, mixed synthetic oligonucleotides were synthesized and used to screen a cDNA library constructed from human parotid-gland mRNA. A cDNA clone coding for statherin was isolated from this library and has been completely sequenced. The cDNA represents a full-length (or nearly full-length) copy of an approximately 640-bp statherin mRNA. Statherin appears to be coded by a single-copy gene that maps to chromosome 4q11-4q13 when somatic-cell hybrids are used.Entities:
