Functional properties of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor beta3 promoter in the developing central nervous system.

Abstract excerpt

Within the chick central nervous system, expression of the beta3 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor gene is restricted to a subset of retinal neurons, the majority of which are ganglion cells. Transient transfection in retinal neurons and in neural and non-neural cells from other regions of the chick embryo allowed the identification of the cis-regulatory domain of the beta3 gene. Within this domain, a 75-base pair...
