Structure and expression of the murine thromboxane A2 receptor gene.
Biochem Biophys Res Commun
March 1999
Article Synopsis
- * The 5'-flanking region lacks typical promoter elements like TATA and CAAT boxes, but has multiple potential regulatory sites for proteins such as Sp-1 and NF-kappaB.
- * TP RNA is expressed in key organs like the thymus, spleen, kidney, and lung, with specific expression in the thymic cortex, indicating a possible role of thromboxane A2 in T-lymphocyte development.
The mouse genes for the EP1 prostanoid receptor and the PKN protein kinase overlap.
Biochem Biophys Res Commun
October 1996
PKN is a newly discovered protein kinase that has been shown to mediate GTPase Rho dependent intracellular signalling. We show in this report that the mouse PKN gene is situated at the mouse EP1 prostanoid receptor gene locus and that the two genes are overlapping in a tail-to-tail manner. An "exon trap" strategy was used to identify the overlap phenomenon.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA partial cDNA, corresponding to the mouse prostaglandin E2 receptor subtype EP1, was isolated from mouse brain cDNA using a degenerate primer PCR strategy. Using the cDNA fragment as a probe, the EP1 receptor gene was isolated and characterized. The gene consists of three exons, of which the first is non-coding, and is contained within a 3.
