Abstract excerpt

We constructed a cDNA library from sterile Ulva pertusa (Ulvales, Chlorophyta), and isolated and characterized a full-length cDNA clone encoding actin. The actin (ACT) cDNA consisted of 1487 nucleotides (nt) and had an open reading frame (ORF) encoding a polypeptide of 377 amino acid (AA) residues. The ACT gene had one intron in the 5'-untranslated region and three introns in the coding region. Transcription...
