Abstract excerpt
We have identified several estrogen receptor (ER) mRNA isoforms in rat pituitary and characterized their regulation by gonadal steroids. The ER mRNAs correspond to splice variants in which either exon 4, exons 3 and 4, or exons 5 and 6 are deleted. A previously isolated pituitary-specific truncated mRNA, TERP-1, containing a unique 5'-end and exons 5 through 8 of the full-length ER, was also studied. The exon...
