Abstract excerpt
We have determined the 9.8 kb genomic nucleotide sequence of the tyrosinase gene and its 5 upstream region from a teleost, medakafish (Oryzias latipes), and shown that the coding region is composed of five exons and four introns, spanning 4.7 kb. While the number and sizes of the exons were found to be similar to those of mammalian tyrosinase genes, however, the total size of the coding region (4.7 kb) was...
