Abstract excerpt
Using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), we have cloned the 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subunit epsilon 2 from murine forebrain-derived mRNA. We identified two distinct types of cDNA species differing in the presence or absence of one exon sequence. Sequencing of the 5'-non-coding region of the epsilon 2 gene revealed that the epsilon 2 5'-UTR consists of three...
