title: Identification of differentially expressed genes in Con A-activated carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) leucocytes.
abstract: A cDNA library was constructed from the message RNA (mRNA) obtained from Con A-induced head kidney (HK) leucocytes of carp (Cyprinus carpio L.). Differential screening of the cDNA was carried out by hybridization against the total cDNA probes from normal, Con A-uninduced HK leucocytes or Con A-induced HK leucocytes of carp. The differential expression patterns of certain cDNA clones were confirmed by Southern-blot and Northern-blot analysis. Single-pass of the sequencing analysis and homology search in Genbank (EMBL) revealed those differentially expressed cDNA clones encode for cytochrome c oxidase sub-unit II and III (COII and COIII), elongation factor-1 beta (EF-1 beta), bleomycin hydrolase (BH), heat shock cognate protein 70 (HSC70) and 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA).
