Molecular Cloning, Characterisation and Tissue-specific Expression of Human LAG3, a Member of the Novel Lag1 Protein Family
1 Jan 2003
Abstract excerpt
We identified and characterised the cDNA coding for human Lag3, a member of the novel eukaryotic Lag1 protein family which was related to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae longevity-assurance gene LAG1. The composite nucleotide sequence revealed a coding region of 1140 bp, a 5'-UTR of 210 bp and a 3'-UTR of 900 bp. The deduced sequence of 380 amino acids had six transmembrane regions and the conserved Lag1 motif....
