cDNA cloning, characterization, and expression analysis of the Rac1 and Rac2 genes from Cynoglossus semilaevis

In this study, a Rac1 homolog (CsRac1) and a Rac2 homolog (CsRac2) were cloned from the Cynoglossus semilaevis. The full-length of CsRac1 and CsRac2 cDNA was 1219 bp and 1047 bp, respectively. Both CsRac1 and CsRac2 contain a 579 bp open reading frame (ORF) which encoding a 192 amino acids putative protein. The predicted molecular weight of CsRac1 and CsRac2 was 21.41 kDa and 21.35 kDa, and their theoretical pI was 8.50 and 7.91, respectively. Sequence analysis showed that the conserved RHO domain was detected both from amino acid of CsRac1 and CsRac2. Homologous analysis showed that CsRac1 and CsRac2 share high conservation with other counterparts from different species. The CsRac1 and CsRac2 transcript showed wide tissue distribution, in which CsRac1 and CsRac2 exhibit the highest ex...
