Molecular cloning and characterization of a novel transglutaminase cDNA from a human prostate cDNA library

Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 1994 Sep 15;203(2):1117-23. doi: 10.1006/bbrc.1994.2298.

Abstract

The primary sequence of a cDNA encoding a novel transglutaminase from a human prostate cDNA library is reported. The sequence is compared to other known transglutaminases in a multiple alignment. The deduced peptide sequence is 51% identical to a rat prostate transglutaminase.
