Molecular cloning of the cDNA of mouse mitochondrial NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase and the expression of the gene during lymphocyte activation.

The current report documents the molecular cloning of the mouse mitochondrial NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (mNADP-IDH) cDNA. The cDNA was 1,863 bp in length and contained one open reading frame encoding a 523-residue polypeptide with a predicted molecular weight of 58 kDa. The cDNA and the deduced amino acid (AA) sequence of the mouse mNADP-IDH had a high degree of homology with those of porcine, bovine, alfalfa, and yeast.
