| Description | Goodpasture antigen-binding protein and its alternative splicing variant devoid of the exon-encoded 26-residue motif (GPBP and GPBPΔ26) |
| Abstract | The non-collagenous C-terminal domain of the α3 chain of collagen IV is the autoantigen in Goodpasture disease, an autoimmune disorder described only in humans. Specific N-terminal phosphorylation is a biological feature unique to the human domain when compared with other homologous domains lacking immunopathogenic potential. We have recently cloned from a HeLa-derived cDNA library a novel serine/threonine kinase (Goodpasture antigen-binding protein (GPBP)) that phosphorylates the N-terminal region of the human domain (Raya, A. Revert, F, Navarro, S. and Saus J. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 12642–12649). We show here that the pre-mRNA of GPBP is alternatively spliced in human tissues and that the most common transcript found encodes GPBPΔ26, a molecular isoform devoid of a 26-residue serine-rich motif. Recombinantly expressed GPBPΔ26 exhibits lower activity than GPBP, due at least in part to a reduced ability of GPBPΔ26 to interact and to form very active high molecular weight aggregates. In human tissues, GPBP shows a more limited expression than GPBPΔ26 but displays a remarkable preference for the small vessels and for histological structures targeted by natural autoimmune responses including alveolar and glomerular basement membranes, the two main targets in Goodpasture disease. GPBP expression is, in turn, up-regulated in the striated muscle of a Goodpasture patient and in other autoimmune conditions including cutaneous lupus erythematosus, pemphigoid, and lichen planus. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
