A lambda EMBL3 clone containing the first three exons along with part of the 4th exon of the rat poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase gene was isolated from a genomic DNA library. This clone also contains 6.6 kbp of upstream sequences. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the proximal 5' 670 nucleotides flanking the major RNA start site of the rat gene does not reveal significant global homology with the same region of the human gene, but a series of short sequences are identical. Among these sequences are found two putative Sp1 binding sites along with a decanucleotide sequence responsible for the attachment of the transcription factor AP-2.

D008969 Molecular Sequence Data Descriptions of specific amino acid, carbohydrate, or nucleotide sequences which have appeared in the published literature and/or are deposited in and maintained by databanks such as GENBANK, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), or other sequence repositories.

D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
