Tra2beta as a novel mediator of vascular smooth muscle diversification.

Circulation research - 29 Aug 2008

Shukla Supriya, Fisher Steven A

Abstract excerpt

Transformer splicing regulatory proteins determine the sexually dimorphic traits of Drosophila. The role of the vertebrate homologs of Tra-2 in phenotypic specification is undefined. We are using the alternative splicing of the MYPT1 E23 exon as a model for the study of smooth muscle diversification into fast and slow contractile phenotypes. Tra2beta mRNA and protein is expressed at up to 10-fold higher levels in...
