Abstract excerpt
The human growth hormone receptor (hGHR) is encoded by exons 2-10 of the hGHR gene on chromosome 5p13.1-p12. There are several different 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) variants of hGHR mRNA (V1-V9) that all encode the same protein. We have recently mapped the V1-V9 5'UTR sequences within 40 kb of the 5' flanking region of the hGHR gene. Seven of the exons are clustered within two small modules, module A...
