Abstract excerpt
To identify candidate genes for Down syndrome phenotypes or disorders that map to human chromosome 21q22.3, trapped exons are being used to isolate full-length transcripts. We isolated a full-length cDNA (WDR4) encoding a novel WD-repeat protein and its mouse homologue. Two RNA species of 1.5 and 2.1 kb were observed in human, with the 1.5-kb transcript being produced by a splicing event after the stop codon, and...
