Molecular-Cloning and Characterization of a Novel Transglutaminase cDNA from a Human Prostate cDNA Library

The primary sequence of a cDNA encoding a novel transglutaminase from a human prostate cDNA library is reported. The sequence is compared to other known transglutaminases in a multiple alignment. The deduced peptide sequence is 51% identical to a rat prostate transglutaminase.
