abstractText | Scl and Spare are two extracellular proteins sharing similarity in their carboxyl terminus, with 63% identity over a 232-amino-acid region. We have cloned and mapped the genomic locus of mouse Set The mouse Sd gene contains 11 exons spanning similar to 35 kb of DNA. The genomic structure (exon/intron boundaries) of Sd exons 6 to exon 11 is identical to those of the similar portion of the Spare gene. This suggests that Sd and Spare originated from a common ancestral gene. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis, Sd was localized to band 5E4 of mouse chromosome 5. |
