Abstract excerpt
Two highly homologous subunits for phosphoribosylpyrophosphate synthetase are encoded by human X-linked genes, PRPS1 and PRPS2 (Taira, M., Kudoh, J., Minoshima, S., Iizasa, T., Shimada, H., Shimizu, Y., Tatibana, M., and Shimizu, N. (1989b) Somat. Cell Mol. Genet. 15, 29-37). These genes are expressed in most tissues, whereas an additional unique mRNA (1.4 kilobases) is present in the testes of rats as well as...
