Journal ArticleDOI
Cell-specific expression of a transfected human α1-antitrypsin gene
TL;DR: It is shown that the 5' flanking region of the alpha 1-AT gene contains DNA sequences sufficient for efficient transcription in Hep3B but not in HeLa cells, suggesting that this cis-acting cell-specific element does not share all the features generally associated with enhancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Common and interchangeable elements in the promoters of genes transcribed by RNA polymerase III
TL;DR: It is shown that the 34 bp internal control region of the somatic 5S RNA gene from Xenopus borealis can be split into two separable components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and expression of the human haptoglobin locus.
TL;DR: Northern blot and primer elongation analyses with human liver RNA show that the haptoglobin gene Hp1F appears to be transcribed some 1000‐fold less in fetal than in adult liver.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of gene and pseudogenes of human apoferritin H

TL;DR: It is concluded that only one gene is responsible for the synthesis of the majority of apoferritin H mRNA in various tissues examined, and that probably all the other DNA segments hybridizing with apferritin cDNA are pseudogenes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of human alpha 1-acid glycoprotein genes in cultured cells and in transgenic mice.
TL;DR: This work has studied the regulation of the cloned AGP-A gene by transfection into cell lines of hepatic and nonhepatic origin and found that sufficient information for tissue-specific and regulated expression is contained within a 6.6-kb segment.
