Alternative promotion of the mouse acyl-CoA synthetase 6 (mAcsl6) gene mediates the expression of multiple transcripts with 5'-end heterogeneity: genetic organization of mAcsl6 variants.

Abstract excerpt

We report four variants and alternative promoter usage for the mouse acyl-CoA synthetase 6 (mAcsl6) gene. The variants, which were organized into 26 exons and 25 introns spanning 55 kb of DNA on mouse chromosome 11, were classified according to their 5'-UTRs and alternative splicing of exon 13. Alignment of the nucleotide sequences showed that the mAcsl6 variant 1 (mAcsl6_v1) and mAcsl6_v2 used a different...
