Abstract

Complementary DNA (cDNA) and genomic clones encoding chicken glutamine synthetase (Glns) have been isolated. The nucleotide (nt) sequence of the 2728-bp cDNA specifies a 91-nt 5' untranslated sequence, a 1119-nt open reading frame, and a 1518-nt 3' untranslated sequence that contains several A + T-rich regions but lacks a canonical endonucleolytic-cleavage/polyadenylation signal. Based on sequence analysis of the cloned gene, the Glns transcription unit spans 7.0 kb and contains seven exons.
