title: [Analysis of sequences from human brain cDNA gene bank which are functionally active in nervous tissue and tumor cells].
abstract: Construction of a human cortex cDNA bank is described as well as the isolation from this bank of pBH71 and pBH3 clones with preferential expression in nervous and in tumor cells. The clones can be included into the third class of cDNA according to Sutcliff's classification. The mRNA corresponding to this cDNA class is considered to play the key role in determination of specificity of nervous tissue. Expression of the pBH71 sequence was revealed in human cortex and in tissues of different genesis (from neuroblastoma to uterus myoma), a 2 kb mRNA which corresponds to one and the same cDNA chain having been found in all tissues under analysis. The nucleotide sequence of cDNA insertion into the pBH71 clone of 447 n.p. was determined, and particular features of cDNA nucleotide composition and possible schemes of its translation were analysed. Weak homology was found between the 3'-end of cDNA insertion of the pBH71 clone and the 3'-end region of human proopiomelanocortine. The cDNA of the pBH3 clone hybridizes with the 0.8 kb mRNA revealed in human cortex and neuroendocrine tumors of different nature. No homology was revealed between the cDNA sequence of the pBH3 clone and any genes deciphered.
