Sequence of iNOS cDNA from LPS-stimulated microglia

The iNOS-specific PCR products were cloned and sequenced. The human hepatic iNOS sequence (39) was aligned to the monkey iNOS sequence. The monkey microglia iNOS was ≥95% identical to nucleotide and amino acid sequence of human hepatic iNOS. Amino acids are shown in three-letter code, dots indicate homology to human iNOS, while nucleotide differences are indicated by a letter, and amino acid differences are noted by the three-letter code.
