Abstract excerpt
Human pulmonary surfactant protein A (SP-A) is encoded by two genes, SP-A1 and SP-A2. Reports from our laboratory and other investigations have shown heterogeneity in both genes within three regions (the 5' untranslated [5' UT], the coding, and the 3' untranslated [3' UT] regions). To more fully...
