Abstract excerpt
A 5.2-kb mRNA band that contains estrogen receptor (ER) sequence and exhibits sex- and tissue-specific expression has been identified in rat pituitary via Northern analysis; this band is composed of at least two distinctive ER mRNA isoforms. This mRNA is expressed in high levels in female pituitary but is absent in male pituitary and uterus, whereas the mRNA encoding the full-length receptor (6.2 kb) is expressed...
