Abstract excerpt
Recent work from our lab has demonstrated the importance of alternative promoters and variable 5' UTRs in the regulation of two connexin genes. To see whether other connexins also utilize multiple promoters to produce different mRNA isoforms, we screened the mouse EST database for variations in the 5' ends of each connexin EST in UniGene. 5'-RACE analysis of mouse embryo cDNA targeting five candidate genes, Cx31,...
