A putative murine homologue of the Drosophila polyhomeotic gene, named rae28, has been isolated from a genomic library of 129/SV mouse and its structural organization has been analyzed. rae28 is a single gene of approximately 22 kb long and consists of 15 exons. Its 5'-flanking region lacks typical transcriptional regulatory sequences, such as TATA and CCAAT boxes, but contains GC-rich sequences and seven putative binding sites for a transcription factor, Sp1. One major transcription start point has been determined. The overall exon-intron organization suggested that three different Rae28 mRNAs are generated through alternative splicing. Furthermore, the rae28 gene has been located on the R-positive F3 band of mouse chromosome 6 by the direct R-banding fluorescence in situ hybridization methods.
