title: Exon-intron structure and nucleotide sequence of the rat proacrosin gene.
abstract: The nucleotide sequence and exon-intron organization of the proacrosin gene was determined. It consists of 6 exons and 5 introns of which one is located in the 5' untranslated region. The transcription initiation site was determined at position 471 (564 nucleotides upstream of ATG), TATA- and TAAT-boxes were found 588 and 656 bp upstream of the ATG-translation start point, respectively.
