ABSTRACT:
From a cDNA library, a nucleotide sequence of a novel gene, called rig, specifically expressed by streptozotocin- or alloxan-nicotinamide-induced rat insulinomas was determined and an amino acid sequence of a protein encoded by the gene was deduced. Further, novel genes with base sequences homologous to rig were found in a BK virus-induced hamster insulinoma and in a surgically removed human insulinoma. The above DNA is transcribed to provide an mRNA. The above novel proteins, DNAs and mRNAs can be efficaciously employed for the medical purposes of pancreatic diseases.
