abstract：:The rat adult liver and hepatocyte lines express an 1.7-kb variant alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) mRNA which differs from the 2.2-kb fetal AFP transcript in sequence in the 5' region. Here we report the characterization of a variant AFP cDNA, ARFP9, which is 1349 bp in length and encodes a 325 amino acid polypeptide. Nucleot...

abstract：:In a 28-year-old man with myopathy and phosphorylase kinase (PhK) deficiency, we found a G-to-C substitution at the 5' end of an intron in the muscle-specific alpha-subunit gene. The mutation destroys the high-consensus GT sequences at the 5' splice junction of the intron, which causes skipping of the preceding exon. ...
