Cloning of Chitinase-Like Protein1 Cdna From Dicyemid Mesozoans (Phylum: Dicyemida)

Abstract: Dicyemid mesozoans are endoparasites found in the renal sacs of benthic cephalopods. Adult dicyemids insert the distinct anterior region, termed a "calotte," into renal tubules of the host. We cloned cDNA encoding chitinase-like protein from the dicyemid Dicyema japonicum (Dicyema-clp 1), and also cloned the gene fragment corresponding to the cDNA. Dicyema-clp1 has the hydrophobic amino acid-rich region, but not the chitin-binding domains at the C terminus. Analyses using the SignalP prediction program suggest… Show more
