Abstract excerpt
X-arrestin (arrestin-3) is an arrestin present specifically in the outer segments of red-, green-, and blue-cone photoreceptors. The X-arrestin gene is on Xcen-q22, and consists of 17 exons with a promoter containing a TATA box and elements important for photoreceptor expression, including three CRX and one PCE-1-like element. In order to delineate the promoter structure necessary for the pan-cone-specific...
