Dissection of the locus control function located on the chicken lysozyme gene domain in transgenic mice.
The entire chicken lysozyme gene locus including all known cis-regulatory sequences and the 5' and 3' matrix attachment sites defining the borders of the DNase I sensitive chromatin domain, is expressed at a high level and independent of its chromosomal position in macrophages of transgenic mice. It was concluded that the lysozyme gene locus carries a locus control function. We analysed several...
متن کاملTissue-specific and differentiation-specific expression of a human K14 keratin gene in transgenic mice.
A construct containing approximately 2500 base pairs (bp) of 5' upstream and approximately 700 bp of 3' downstream sequence was used to drive the expression of an intronless human K14 gene in vitro and in vivo. To track the expression of the gene, a small sequence encoding the antigenic portion of neuropeptide substance P was inserted in frame 5' to the TGA translation stop codon of the gene. S...
متن کاملTissue-specific expression in the salivary glands of transgenic mice.
Using a DNA construct, named Lama, derived from the murine parotid secretory protein (PSP) gene, we have obtained salivary gland specific gene expression in transgenic mice. Lama is a PSP minigene and allows analysis of the PSP gene 5' regulatory region by transgenesis. We show here that the regulatory region included in Lama with 4.6 kb of 5' flanking sequence is sufficient to direct expressio...
متن کاملTissue-specific and efficient expression of the human simple epithelial keratin 8 gene in transgenic mice.
Keratin 8 is a type II intermediate filament protein found in simple epithelia. We have introduced a 12 kb DNA fragment of the human K8 locus into the germ line of mice. The transgene, containing 1.1 kb of 5' flanking sequences, 7.7 kb corresponding to the body of the gene and 3.2 kb of 3' flanking sequences, was expressed in all six lines obtained. Immunolocalization and RNA analysis of adult ...
متن کاملDevelopmental Stage- and Tissue-specific Expression of the Human COL2A1 Gene in Transgenic Mice
Expression of the type II collagen gene (human COL2A1 , mouse Col2a1 ) heralds the differentiation of chondrocytes. It is also expressed in progenitor cells of some nonchondrogenic tissues during embryogenesis. DNA sequences in the 5 9 flanking region and intron 1 are known to control tissue-specific expression in vitro, but the regulation of COL2A1 expression in vivo is not clearly understood....
