Abstract
A 935 bp fragment of the rat glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) gene containing promoter activity was isolated using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This fragment was sequenced and primer extension analysis showed a transcription initiation site in agreement with the human and mouse genes. Computer analysis of the sequence showed a 60% and 78% similarity to the human and mouse G6PDH sequences, respectively. A TATA box element, TTAAAT, was found and shown to be 100% similar to the human and mouse TATA box elements. Based on sequence comparison, some putative transcriptional regulatory elements were also found.Entities:
