Abstract excerpt
The sequence of a splice variant of the rat mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) gene is presented. A cDNA clone corresponding to rat MR was isolated from a rat brain cDNA library. Sequence analysis of the region corresponding to the DNA binding domain revealed the presence of a 12 base pair (bp) insertion. Analysis of mRNA from several rat tissues suggests that the variant is less abundant than the wild type in most...
