摘要
The mouse gene MOK-2 encodes a protein with seven highly similar zinc fingers. The MOK-2 transcripts are preferentially detected in transformed cell lines, brain and testis tissues. The characterized 5'-flanking sequence differs from those of tissue-specific genes previously described. DNA sequence analysis shows that the promoter region lacks TATA and CCAAT boxes. Two short interspersed mouse genomic repeats (B2 sequences) found in this region exert a negative cis-acting effect on MOK-2 promoter activity.
