Abstract excerpt
Phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx) is transcribed into three types of mRNA, mitochondrial, non-mitochondrial and nucleolar types, from one gene by alternative transcription using different first exons, Ia and Ib. We investigated the regulatory mechanisms of the expressions of the three types of PHGPx using promoter analysis with luciferase as the reporter gene and electrophoretical mobility...
