What is Structure and development of rabbit pepsinogens. Stage-specific zymogens, nucleotide sequences of cDNAs, molecular evolution, and gene expression during development. about?

In order to clarify the structure and development of rabbit pepsinogens, purification and molecular cloning of these proteins were performed at various developmental stages. Several pepsinogens were isolated, and they were classified as pepsinogens F and M, and into pepsinogen groups I, II, and III. The relative levels and specific activities of the various pepsinogens changed significantly during development. Pepsinogens F and M were present only at the early postnatal stage, and their level was higher than those of other pepsinogens at this stage. Pepsinogens in groups I, II, and III were the predominant zymogens at the late postnatal stage. cDNA clones encoding all of these pepsinogens were obtained, with the exception of pepsinogens I and M, and the nucleotide sequences were determined. Each cDNA contained a leader region (signal peptide), a pro-region (activation segment), and a pepsin region, of 15, 44, and 328 residues, respectively, with the exception of the cDNA for pepsinogen F in which the pro- and pepsin regions were composed of 43 and 330 residues, respectively. Pepsinogens in groups II and III exhibited a high degree of similarity with one another, whereas many substi
