 AB    The cDNA for a c-myc intron 1 binding protein 1 (MIBP1) in the rat was
       isolated from lambda gt11 and lambda ZAPII cDNA libraries. Sequencing of
       the cDNA clones revealed a long ORF which encoded a putative protein of
       2437 amino acid residues. This protein has two widely separated zinc
       finger regions, each of which carries C2H2 motifs. When expressed in E.
       coli as a fusion protein, part of the MIBP1 showed sequence-specific
       binding to the target sequence, i.e., a 9-bp sequence in the rat c-myc
       intron 1. MIBP1 is most likely the rat counterpart of human MHC binding
       protein-2 (MBP-2/HIV-EP2), based on the 86% similarity in nucleotide
       sequence and 93% similarity in amno acid sequence. Northern blotting
       revealed a high level of MIBP1 mRNA in the brain.
