Tissue-specific generation of two preprotachykinin mRNAs from one gene by alternative RNA splicing.

H Nawa, H Kotani, S Nakanishi.   

Abstract

A novel mammalian neuropeptide, the tachykinin substance K, is specified by a discrete genomic segment. Alternative RNA splicing generates two distinct mRNAs encoding the neuropeptide substance P alone or with substance K from a single preprotachykinin gene. Relative amounts of the mRNAs vary in different tissues, suggesting that the substance K-encoding sequence is regulated in a tissue-specific manner.
