Human Mucin Gene MUC5B, the 10.7-kb Large Central Exon Encodes Various Alternate Subdomains Resulting in a Super-repeat
1 Feb 1997
Abstract excerpt
Human mucin gene MUC5B is mapped clustered with MUC6, MUC2, and MUC5AC on chromosome 11p15.5. We report here the isolation of three overlapping genomic clones of human MUC5B spanning approximately 40 kilobases. We have determined their partial restriction maps and the intron-exon boundaries of the central region encoding a single open reading frame. This coding region has been completely sequenced. Its length is...
