Comments
Restriction digests of the clone give the following sizes (kb): EcoRI--2.7, 1.88; PstI--4.27, 0.35; EcoRI/PstI--2.7, 1.52, 0.33; HindIII--4.54; XbaI--3.55, 0.99.
The insert contains the following restriction sites (in nucleotides from the 5' end): PstI--332; XbaI--785; DraI--1587.
The cell line was treated with phorbol myristae acetate (PMA) to induce differentiation.
The published sequence is 1881 nucleotides, including EcoRI linkers. The complete coding sequence extends from 32 through 1277.
Insert encodes the NNS variant of PAI-2.
The consensus sequence TTATTTAT, identified in cytokines that act as inflammatory mediators, occurs in the 3' untranslated region.
