Expression of DDSG1, a novel gene encoding a putative DNA-binding protein in the embryonic chicken nervous system.
In an attempt to clone genes expressed in the gizzard of the chicken embryo by differential display, we obtained a cDNA of a gene encoding a protein with a putative nuclear localization signal and a DNA-binding motif and designated it DDSG1 (differential display-screened gene expressed in the gizzard-1). Besides its expression in the gizzard, the gene is expressed in central and peripheral nervous systems such as brain, spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia in specific patterns.
