Abstract excerpt
Adenylosuccinate synthetase (ADSS) catalyzes the key step of AMP synthesis. Vertebrates have two isozymes of ADSS, which are named ADSS1 and ADSS2, respectively. In this study, we cloned porcine ADSS1 and ADSS2 genes and comparatively analyzed their sequence, chromosome mapping, mRNA distribution and subcellular localization. According to our results, the ADSS1 gene was predominantly expressed in the striated...
