Abstract

A comparison of several published hAT1R cDNA sequences revealed that, although these clones shared an identical open reading frame, they differed in portions of their 5′-UTRs.1 Therefore these data suggest that alternative splicing events combine various 5′-UTR exons with the exon that harbors the hAT I R coding region.
