A Glutamine-Rich Factor Affects Stem Cell Genesis in Leech

Figure 3

Tpr nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequences (GenBank accession no. EU527977). The available ORF encodes a protein domain that contains $~$34% glutamine. Shaded sequences identify the positions of oligonucleotides TprA (330–350), TprB (378–397), TprC (410–429), TprD (464–483), Tpr1 (292–302), and Tpr2 (529–549) that were employed for microinjections, RACE-PCR and RT-PCR (see Section 2).
