The rat brain-specific polypeptide 1B236 was previously characterized by molecular cloning and nucleotide sequence determination of its mRNA. It has been shown to exist in rat brain in discrete neuronal circuits, primarily as a 100,000 Da glycoprotein. We now have determined the time course of expression of 1B236 mRNA and protein in rat brain during fetal and postnatal development, detecting 1B236 mRNA by RNA blotting and assaying 1B236 protein by electroblotting and radioimmunoassay with antibodies against synthetic peptides. By both indices, expression of the 1B236 gene products is found to be a relatively late event in neuronal development. 1B236 mRNA is first detectable in extracts of whole rat brain at Postnatal Day 5 (PD 5) and increases to a maximum concentration at PD 25. In extracts of dissected brain regions, 1B236 mRNA is first detectable at PD 5 in hindbrain and cerebellum, at PD 9 in midbrain/diencephalon, but not until PD 13 in telencephalon. The appearance of 1B236 protein follows a very similar time course to that of its mRNA in both whole brain and dissected brain regions, suggesting that the expression of the protein during development is regulated largely by transcription of its mRNA. The pattern of 1B236 expression was confirmed by immunocytochemical localization of 1B236 protein: Immunoreactive material can be detected first in spinal cord at PD 3-PD 5 and then appears in progressively more rostral brain regions in increasingly older animals. Several brain regions, however, that do not contain 1B236 immunoreactivity in the adult, such as optic nerve and somatic efferent cranial nerve nuclei, show transient expression of 1B236 during postnatal development.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
