Alternative splicing of a human alpha-tropomyosin muscle-specific exon: identification of determining sequences.

abstract：:In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the intracellular concentration of trehalose increases rapidly in response to many environmental stresses, including heat shock. These high trehalose levels have been correlated with tolerance to adverse conditions and led to the model that trehalose functions as a chemical cochaperone. He...
