Abstract :
The full-length cDNA of a new S-RNase (S 34-RNase) (GenBank accession No.DQ414813) was successfully cloned from pistils of Chinese pear by RT-PCR and RACE methods. The S 34-RNase shows a complete CDS of 687 nucleotides for putative 229 amino acids. The theoretical three-dimension structure of S 34-RNase was predicted by homology modeling method and its structural characteristic was analyzed. Aligning of S 34-RNase with other 39 S-RNases of pears revealed the question about unifying naming system.
