- " Sequencing and computer-assisted sequence comparison revealed 3 classes of regulated cDNA clones representing 1) novel gene sequences (8 clones) including 3 transcripts containing a repetitive "brain identifier" (ID) element; 2) identified genes (7 clones) with previously undetected expression in the peripheral nervous system (PNS), such as apolipoprotein D, peripheral myelin protein 22kD (PMP22), SPARC (secreted protein, acidic and rich in cysteine), sulfated glycoprotein SGP-1, apoferritin, decorin, and X16/SRp20; and 3) identified genes (9 clones) with known expression in the PNS including, e.g., the myelin protein P0, gamma-actin, vimentin, alpha-tubulin, chargerin II, and cytochrome c-oxidase subunit I. Northern blot and polymerase chain reaction analyses with RNA from crushed and transected nerve demonstrated that sequences with related function, like the group of myelin genes, cytoskeleton genes, genes involved in RNA processing and translation, in lipid transport or energy metabolism showed closely related temporal patterns of expression during nerve degeneration and regeneration.
