Cloning and sequence analysis of Hsp89alpha DeltaN, a new member of theHsp90 gene family.
We have identified a novel member of the Hsp90 gene family. This new gene, Hsp89alpha DeltaN, is remarkable in that it appears to represent a recent evolutionary event. Hsp89alpha DeltaN is identical in nucleotide sequence to Hsp89alpha for codons 224 to 732 (end). However, Hsp89alpha DeltaN cDNA lacks the ATP/geldanamycin binding domain (codons 1-220), instead containing 544 nucleotides of unique DNA at its 5' end including 30 novel codons.
