Figure 1From: Molecular cloning, characterization, genomic organization and promoter analysis of the α1,6-fucosyltransferase gene (fut8) expressed in the rat hybridoma cell line YB2/0Genomic organization of rat fut8 gene. (A) The rat fut8 gene ORF is located on chromosome 6, and contains 9 exons (labeled E1-E9), spanning 140 kbp. (B) Schematic representation of rat fut8 gene mRNA. The grey boxes represent the open reading frame and the open boxes the 5'- and 3'-unttranslated regions, respectively. The black lines represent the rat EST identified in the public databases.Back to article page
