Abstract

On the base of a cDNA fragment cloned from a human osteosarcoma cell line (HOS-8603) which was taken as the model of heat shock by DDRT-PCR, the cDNA library was screened by the probe made from this fragment, and the colony containing full length cDNA of this cDNA fragment (HSSG-1) was identified. Sequencing data indicated that this cDNA consisted of 1 456 bp, coding for 276 amino acids. Computer aided homology analysis did not find the same sequence published. The result of RNA dot hybridization suggested that HSSG-1 was expressing in many kinds of organs and cells, and the down regulating of its expression level caused by heat shock was general. Therefore, this may be a gene that is suppressed by heat shock.
