Cloning and characterization of glycine-rich RNA-binding protein cDNAs in the moss Physcomitrella patens.

We isolated three cDNAs for the genes PpGRP1, PpGRP2 and PpGRP3 that encode glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins (GRPs) from Physcomitrella patens. Three full-length cDNA clones were isolated from a cDNA library prepared from poly(A)(+) RNA from 7-day-old protonemata of P. patens.
