Analysis of the genome of jute (Corchorus olitorius) was done by creating a new cDNA library of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) in pBluescript as the previous libraries reported earlier in this journal yielded only small DNA fragments from chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA. This report discusses results from a cDNA library constructed using poly A+ mRNA purified from 7-day old etiolated jute seedlings. Out of 700 recombinant plasmids obtained, 250 were analyzed using WU-BLAST (www.arabidopsis.org) for similar EST sequences in Arabidopsis thaliana and other higher plants. So far the analysis of the library has yielded several significant sequences, including the complete open reading frame of the 60S acidic ribosomal protein P3 and a partial cDNA of Class I chitinase. These results and future EST sequences from this library will be made available in Genbank and the sequence information will be used to clone full length DNA through PCR.  DOI = 10.3329/ptcb.v16i2.1110Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 16(2): 95-104, 2006 (December)

ABSTRACT Analysis of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) constitutes a useful approach for gene identification that, in the case of human pathogens, might result in the identification of new targets for chemotherapy and vaccine development. As part of the Trypanosoma cruzigenome project, we have partially sequenced the 5′ ends of 1,949 clones to generate ESTs. The clones were randomly selected from a normalized CL Brener epimastigote cDNA library. A total of 14.6% of the clones were homologous to previously identified T. cruzi genes, while 18.4% had significant matches to genes from other organisms in the database. A total of 67% of the ESTs had no matches in the database, and thus, some of them might be T. cruzi-specific genes. Functional groups of those sequences with matches in the database were constructed according to their putative biological functions. The two largest categories were protein synthesis (23.3%) and cell surface molecules (10.8%). The information reported in this paper should be useful for researchers in the field to analyze genes and proteins of their own interest.
