  • Title: Cloning and characterization of the cDNA encoding rice elongation factor 1 beta.
    Author: Matsumoto S, Terui Y, Xi S, Taira H, Ejiri S.
    Journal: FEBS Lett; 1994 Jan 24; 338(1):103-6. PubMed ID: 8307147.
    Abstract:
    We have cloned and sequenced a cDNA coding for rice elongation factor 1 beta (EF-1 beta). The clone was 1420 bp long and contained an open reading frame coding for 229 amino acids. The overall identity between rice EF-1 beta and rice EF-1 beta' [Matsumoto, S., Oizumi, N., Taira, H. and Ejiri, S. (1992) FEBS Lett. 311, 46-48] is 60% at the amino acid sequence level; a higher percent identical residues (81%) were especially observed in the C-terminal region. Rice EF-1 beta has no conserved phosphorylation site for casein kinase II and no leucine zipper motif, although these motifs are well conserved in EF-1 delta (= beta in plants) subunits of animal EF-1.
