Journal ArticleDOI

GPR56, a Novel Secretin-like Human G-Protein-Coupled Receptor Gene ☆

TL;DR: A novel gene product, GPR56, with homology to the seven transmembrane-domain receptor superfamily, has been cloned by PCR amplification using degenerate oligonucleotide primers and subsequent screening of a human heart cDNA library and its exon-intron structure determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromosomal Localisation, Inducibility, Tissue‐Specific Expression and Strain Differences in Three Murine Peroxisome‐Proliferator‐Activated‐Receptor Genes

TL;DR: Investigation of the tissue-specific distribution revealed that the PPAR alpha RNA was expressed at highest levels in liver, to moderate levels in kidney and brown adipose tissue, and at low levels elsewhere, and the tissue distribution of these receptors suggests an important role in lipid metabolism and toxicity for individual members of thePPAR family.
Journal ArticleDOI

cDNA Cloning, Expression, Subcellular Localization, and Chromosomal Assignment of Mammalian Aurora Homologues, Aurora-Related Kinase (ARK) 1 and 2 ☆

TL;DR: The identified mammalian aurora homologues, designated aurora-related kinase (ARK) 1 and ARK2, suggest that these two kinases may have distinct roles with different expression timing and subcellular localization during the cell cycle progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a novel Sry-related gene and its germ cell-specific expression

TL;DR: The isolation of a novel member of the Sox gene family, Sox30, is reported, which may constitute a distinct subgroup of this family, and it is shown that it is able to specifically recognize the ACAAT motif.
