We have isolated and sequenced cDNA and genomic clones of the murine E alpha gene, one of the immune response genes of the major histocompatibility complex. Comparison of our data with those recently reported for the human homolog DR alpha shows an identical intron-exon structure, and a good conservation of the protein-coding sequences, including the amino acids potentially involved in organizing the second external protein domain into an immunoglobulin-like fold. Noncoding sequences are less conserved, with the exception of the promoter region. Finally, we show that differential expression of the gene in various cell types appears to be transcriptionally regulated, and that genomic rearrangements do not seem necessary for expression. |
