To explore the structure characteristic of ribosomal protein L21(rpL21) gene of the Ailuropoda melanoleuca and investigate its homologies with other already reported sequenses' including Rattus norvegicus, Mus musculus, Mus musculus, etc. The cDNA of rpL21 was cloned from the Ailuropoda melanoleuca by RT-PCR. The sequence data were analyzed by Genscan software. Blast 2.1 was used to study the homology of the obtained rpL21 sequence with the gene sequence of other species; Open reading frame (ORF) of the DNA sequence was searched using ORF finder software; Protein structure of the rpL21 sequence cloned was deduced using Predict Protein software. The results indicated that the length of cDNA fragment cloned was 504bp; containing an open reading frame of 483bp. Deduced protein was composed of 160 amino acids with an estimated molecular weight of 18.59kD and pI of 11.10. The length of the genomic sequence is 2254bp, containing 5 exons and 4 introns. Alignment analysis indicates that rpL21 is highly similarity with the reported species both at the level of DNA and protein. Topology prediction shows that 6 different patterns were found in the rpL21 protein of the Ailuropoda melanoleuca. The rpL21 gene of the Ailuropoda melanoleuca was studied in this paper, which will enrich and improve the mammals' rpL21 gene database.展开更多
