Mechanism and consequences of the duplication of the human C4/P450c21/gene X locus.
1 May 1992
Abstract excerpt
The adjacent C4 and P450c21 genes encode the fourth component of serum complement and steroid 21-hydroxylase respectively, and are tandemly duplicated in the human, murine, and bovine genomes. We recently cloned a cDNA for another duplicated gene, operationally termed X, which overlaps the 3' end of human P450c21 and has the opposite transcriptional orientation. Thus, the organization of the locus is...
