Cloning and characterization of the human osteopontin gene and its promoter
1 Oct 1994
Abstract excerpt
We isolated the human osteopontin (hOP) gene and the 5' upstream region, and analysed its exon-intron structure and potential regulatory sequences of the promoter region in comparison with those of the mouse and porcine gene. The coding sequence is split into 7 exons which are similar to those of the mouse gene, although the hOP gene is longer than the mouse gene. The difference in length is mainly due to...
