Abstract

We have isolated cloned cDNAs corresponding to five mRNAs whose level is increased following stimulation of quiescent rat fibroblasts by either epidermal growth factor or serum. Partial sequencing followed by a computer search of data banks has shown that the cloned cDNA5 correspond to mRNAs encoding proteins with extensive homology to lactate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, enol ase, tn ose phosphate isomerase, and actin. The complete nucleotide sequence of a rat fibroblast lactate dehydrogenase is presented.
