Characterization of Oct2 from the channel catfish: functional preference for a variant octamer motif.

Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950) - 15 Apr 1998

Abstract excerpt

The Ig heavy chain enhancer of the channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) has an unusual position and structure, being found in the 3' region of the mu gene and containing eight functional octamer motifs of consensus (ATGCAAAT) and variant sequences. The presence of multiple octamer motifs suggests that an Oct2 homologue may play an important role in driving expression of the Ig heavy chain locus in a teleost...
