Abstract

By library screening and PCR we have obtained cDNA clones which encode the gamma subunit of the CCT chaperonin complex fromXenopus laevis. The gene (XlCctg), which encodes the CCTγ subunit contains an open reading frame which codes for 547 amino acid residues (60 kDa) and the predicted amino acid sequence shares a high degree of sequence identity with other CCTγ homologues. TheXlCctg mRNA measures 2.1 kb and is expressed ubiquitously in all of theX. laevis tissues examined. The mRNA levels ofXlCctg are significantly higher in the ovary compared with other tissues.
