Abstract excerpt
The Xenopus laevis elrD gene belongs to the multigenic elav/Hu family. elrD is exclusively expressed in neural cells, where it could be involved in the posttranscriptional control of mRNAs. Here we report the isolation and characterization of the genomic elrD 5'-flanking region. We localized the transcription initiation sites and thus identified two distinct transcripts, elrD1 and elrD2 by 5' RACE PCR. The two...
