Abstract
The mouse gene (mHB-EGF) encoding heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor was isolated from a mouse 129SVJ genomic library. DNA sequence analysis confirmed that the clone contained six exons (I-VI) and five introns (A-E), and spanned approx. 14 kb of DNA. PCR analysis showed that introns A-E of mHB-EGF are 203 bp, 2.5 kb, 5.5 kb, 825 bp and 272 bp in length, respectively. These results establish that mHB-EGF is similar in organization to human HB-EGF (hHB-EGF). However, DNA sequence analysis of introns A-E of mHB-EGF failed to show significant overall homology with those of hHB-EGF.Entities:
