| pubmed-article:15177678 | pubmed:abstractText | The class VI POU domain family member known as Emb in the mouse (rat Brn5 or human mPOU/TCFbeta1) is present in vivo as a protein migrating at about 80 kDa on western blots, considerably larger than that predicted (about 42 kDa) from previously cloned coding sequences. By RT-PCR and 5' RACE strategies a full-length Emb sequence, Emb FL, is now identified. Shorter sequences encoding the -COOH terminal, and an -NH(2) terminal isoform, EmbN, were also isolated. Comparisons of Emb coding sequences between species, including the full-length zebra fish, POU(c), are presented, together with a compilation of the multiple transcripts produced by alternative splicing and the presence of different transcriptional start and stop sites, from the Emb gene. | lld:pubmed |
