Abstract excerpt
Using a repetitive sequence of tandemly arrayed pentanucleotides in the human H19 3'-flanking region, we isolated a phage clone (lambda PEN11) which localized to chromosome 11p15.5. The lambda PEN11 phage encodes a 2.3-kb cDNA consisting of seven exons at least. The gene was mainly expressed in brain and pancreas (and less abundantly in testis), and demonstrated differential allele usage, with maternal expression...
