We utilized the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to detect the presence of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) messenger RNA in rat brain, ovary and kidney. The nucleotide sequence of the RT-PCR product revealed a novel 3' untranslated (UT) sequence in the rat basic FGF mRNA. In this sequence, as in the 3' UT regions of many growth regulatory genes, there is a high degree of conservation of A+T rich motifs which have been shown to play a major role in mRNA stability.
我们利用逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)来检测大鼠脑、卵巢和肾脏中碱性成纤维细胞生长因子(bFGF)信使核糖核酸(mRNA)的存在。RT-PCR产物的核苷酸序列揭示了大鼠碱性FGF mRNA中一个新的3'非翻译(UT)序列。在这个序列中,如同许多生长调节基因的3'UT区域一样,富含A+T的基序具有高度保守性,这些基序已被证明在mRNA稳定性中起主要作用。
