From the canine genome database and its bioinformatic analysis, we identified conserved sequences within the vast majority of 61 variable segments and 1 joining segment of the immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) gene, and designed optimal primers for...
One group of proteins that regulates neurite outgrowth and maintains neuronal networks is the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF). We previously identified a new member of the IgSF, keratinocyte-associated transmembrane protein-4 (KCT-4), by the sig...
