Structural characterization of the mouse high growth deletion and discovery of a novel fusion transcript between suppressor of cytokine signaling-2 (Socs-2) and viral encoded semaphorin receptor (Plexin C1).

Abstract excerpt

The high growth (HG) mouse mutation is a 460 Kb deletion of chromosome 10 which causes a 30-50% increase in growth in the homozygous animal. We have shotgun sequenced six bacterial artificial chromosomes which span the length of the deletion to an average depth of 13.2x to generate a 649,868 bp sequence. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of three genes, suppressor of cytokine signaling-2 (Socs-2), caspase...
