Cloning and Sequence Analysis of Genes for Cyclophilin fromArabidopsis thaliana

摘要

Two genomic DNA clones encoding cyclophilin (CyP) fromArabidopsis thalianawere isolated. The deduced protein products of these genes appeared to be cytosol-localized isoforms given the absence of a specific presequence for targeting to cellular compartments. Thus, multiple CyPs may exist and function in the cytosol ofArabidopsis thaliana.
