pubmed:abstractText
The cDNA (HED-2) encoding a 20 kDa protein found in mammalian epididymal fluid was isolated from a human testis expression library. It is composed of 1908 bp, containing a reading frame of 1479 bp, coding a polypeptide consisting of 493 amino acids, and assigned the accession number: U15158 by GenBank (Biochem. Mol. Biol. Int. 34, 1131-1136, 1994). HED-2 has 99% identity with the zyxin gene in amino acid sequence, a component of cell junction matrix and a member of the LIM domain protein family. Northern blot analysis of RNAs prepared from various human tissues showed that the HED-2 gene was expressed in all tissues analyzed. Sertoli cells of human testis expressed the gene as determined by an in situ hybridization method. The present study shows that the HED-2 gene is a member of the LIM domain protein family.
