Genomic organization and chromosomal mapping of the mouse P-cadherin gene.
Cadherins are a family of Ca(2+)-dependent cell adhesion molecules, that includes P-cadherin, E-cadherin, N-cadherin and L-CAM. In this study, the genomic organization of the mouse P-cadherin gene was determined by analyzing overlapping DNA clones obtained from a mouse genomic library. The results showed that this gene spans over 45 kb and consists of 15 exons. A marked feature of this gene is ...
متن کاملGenomic structure and chromosomal mapping of the mouse N-cadherin gene.
N-cadherin is a member of the cadherin cell-cell adhesion receptor family that includes P-, E-, and R-cadherin and liver cell adhesion molecule (L-CAM). In this study, we determined the structure of the mouse N-cadherin gene by analyzing overlapping genomic clones obtained from a mouse genomic library. This gene consists of 16 exons that disperse over greater than 200 kilobases of genomic DNA. ...
متن کاملGenomic organization, chromosomal mapping and promoter analysis of the mouse selenocysteine tRNA gene transcription-activating factor (mStaf) gene.
mStaf is a zinc-finger protein that activates the transcription of the mouse selenocysteine tRNA gene. The mStaf gene is approx. 35 kb long and split into 16 exons. All exon-intron junction sequences conform to the GT/AG rule. The transcription start site is located 83 bp upstream of the initiation codon. Chromosomal mapping localized the gene to mouse chromosome 7, region E3-F1. Sequence analy...
متن کاملCell binding specificity of mouse R-cadherin and chromosomal mapping of the gene.
R-cadherin was originally identified as a chicken cadherin expressed by the retina. Here, we describe the identification of a mouse homologue of R-cadherin. We isolated mouse cDNAs encoding a cadherin with 94% identity in amino acid sequence to the chicken R-cadherin, and defined this molecule as mouse R-cadherin. L cells transfected with the mouse R-cadherin cDNA acquired a cadherin-mediated c...
متن کاملGenomic organization and chromosomal localization of the mouse Connexin36 (mCx36) gene.
Connexin36 (Cx36) is a new connexin that was recently cloned in mouse, rat and human. It is highly expressed in neurons of the CNS. To gain insight into the transcriptional regulation of this gene, we have cloned the genomic region containing the entire mCx36 gene and sequenced about 7.6kb around the coding region. The computer analysis of this sequence was helpful in defining putative regulati...
