A new 5'-non-coding region for human placental insulin-like growth factor II mRNA expression.
A human placenta cDNA library was screened for insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II). Four clones were selected, which exhibited an IGF-II cDNA coding sequence identical to those previously described for human adult liver IGF-II cDNA. Extensive sequence diversity was observed in the 5'-non-coding region, probably resulting from differential intron splicing.
