Abstract:
N-terminal region of transcriptional factor GCF was re-examined as the published amino acid sequence is extremely basic. 5'Rapid Amplification of cDNA End (5' RACE) analysis was performed and the result revealed that sequence of the first 308 bases of published GCF cDNA does not conform to the one obtained by 5' RACE. Sequence of genomic GCF DNA is consistent with the new cDNA sequence but not with the published one. Results of ordinal RT-PCR analyses are consistent with that of 5' RACE.
