Tissue-Specific Expression of α and β Messenger Ribonucleic Acid Isoforms of the Human Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Normal and Pathological States
1 May 1997
Abstract excerpt
Expression of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is restricted to some sodium-transporting epithelia and a few nonepithelial target tissues. Determination of the genomic structure of the human MR (hMR) revealed two different untranslated exons (1alpha and 1beta), which splice alternatively into the common exon 2, giving rise to two hMR mRNA isoforms (hMR alpha and hMR beta). We have investigated expression of...
