| Abstract | The scavenger receptor cysteine-rich superfamily (SRCR-SF) is a highly conserved group of membrane and/or secreted proteins related to the innate and adaptive immune system. Here, we report the cloning of the gene encoding human S4D-SRCRB, a novel soluble member of the SRCR-SF, which is composed of four group B SRCR domains separated by Pro-, Ser- and Thr-rich polypeptides. The longest cDNA sequence found is 2,806 bp in length and encodes a mature protein of 528 aa, with a predicted molecular mass of M r 55,600. The S4D-SRCRB gene is located at Chromosome 7q11.23, telomeric to the Williams–Beuren syndrome deletion. It extends over 20 kb and consists of 11 exons, with each SRCR domain being encoded by a single exon. Northern blot analysis indicated that S4D-SRCRB has a broad tissue distribution and is expressed as two major mRNA species: one of 2.8 kb, with a restricted tissue expression pattern (mainly kidney and placenta), and another of 1.5 kb, with a broader distribution. A similar mRNA expression pattern was observed during the analysis of several tumor cell lines. The highest degree of similarity found between S4D-SRCRB and other group B SRCR-SF members was with human DMBT1 (a mosaic protein composed of fourteen SRCR domains, which is involved in innate defense and epithelia polarization) and chicken 18-B (a turpentine-induced soluble acute-phase protein composed of four SRCR domains). Our data indicate that S4D-SRCRB constitutes a novel SRCR-SF member, which could be involved in basic homeostatic functions such as innate host defense. |

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.
