Identification and characterization of two alternatively spliced transcript variants of human liver X receptor alpha.
The liver X receptor alpha (LXRalpha) is a member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily that plays an important role in lipid homeostasis. Here we characterize two alternative human LXRalpha transcripts, designated LXRalpha2 and LXRalpha3. All three LXRalpha isoforms are derived from the same gene via alternative splicing and differential promoter usage. The LXRalpha2 isoform lacks the fi...
متن کاملA Unique, Consistent Identifier for Alternatively Spliced Transcript Variants
BACKGROUND As research into alternative splicing reveals the fundamental importance of this phenomenon in the genome expression of higher organisms, there is an increasing need for a standardized, consistent and unique identifier for alternatively spliced isoforms. Such an identifier would be useful to eliminate ambiguities in references to gene isoforms, and would allow for the reliable compar...
متن کاملFunctional characterization of alternatively spliced human SECISBP2 transcript variants
Synthesis of selenoproteins depends on decoding of the UGA stop codon as the amino acid selenocysteine (Sec). This process requires the presence of a Sec insertion sequence element (SECIS) in the 3'-untranslated region of selenoprotein mRNAs and its interaction with the SECIS binding protein 2 (SBP2). In humans, mutations in the SBP2-encoding gene Sec insertion sequence binding protein 2 (SECIS...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and heterologous expression of an alternatively spliced human Mu class glutathione S-transferase transcript.
Two cDNA clones encoding a new Mu class glutathione S-transferase (GST) have been isolated from a human testis cDNA library. Both clones are incomplete and appear to result from alternative splicing. One clone is missing the sequence encoding exon 4 and the other is missing exon 8. The complete sequence of the previously undescribed isoenzyme can be deduced from the two cDNA clones. This is the...
متن کاملImprinting of IGF2 P0 transcript and novel alternatively spliced INS-IGF2 isoforms show differences between mouse and human.
Genomic imprinting is limited to a subset of genes that play critical roles in fetal growth, development and behaviour. One of the most studied imprinted genes encodes insulin-like growth factor 2, and aberrant imprinting and DNA methylation of this gene is associated with the growth disorders Beckwith-Wiedemann and Silver-Russell syndromes and many human cancers. Specific isoforms of this gene...
