Identification of Novel GDNF Isoforms and cis-Antisense GDNFOS Gene and Their Regulation in Human Middle Temporal Gyrus of Alzheimer Disease
12 Nov 2011
Abstract excerpt
Primate-specific genes and isoforms could provide insight into human brain diseases. Our bioinformatic analysis revealed that there are possibly five isoforms of human GDNF gene with different pre- and pro-regions by inter- and intra-exon splicing. By using TaqMan primer probe sets, designed between exons, we verified the expression of all isoforms. Furthermore, a novel GDNFOS gene was found to be transcribed...
