Analysis of the 5' regulatory region of the human Norrie's disease gene: evidence that a non-translated CT dinucleotide repeat in exon one has a role in controlling expression.

Abstract excerpt

Analysis of the 5', upstream regions of the Norrie's disease gene (NDP) from 1380bp to +428 (relative to the putative transcription start site) has been undertaken by transfection analysis. Constructs in which a deletion series of sequences from the region were linked to a luciferase reporter gene have been introduced by electroporation into the retinoblastoma cell line, WeriB. Both positive and negative...
