A full-length 2.4-kb cDNA for the FAD-linked glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.5) was cloned from rat liver using PCR techniques. The cloned gene encodes a protein of 727 amino acids. The calculated molecular mass of 80,898 Da is higher than the apparent molecular mass observed by SDS/PAGE (74,000 Da) of the purified enzyme. This result indicates that the enzyme is synthesized as a precursor with a putative mitochondrial signal sequence. mRNA for this gene was detected in liver, heart, muscle, brain, testes, and pancreas. With the exception of testes, basal expression levels were very low in all tissues examined. However, application of thyroid hormones led to a 10- to 15-fold increase in liver glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase mRNA, whereas hypothyroidism further decreased the mRNA level. IMAGES:
