The microtubule associated protein STOP (Stable Tubule Only Polypeptide) is a calmodulin-regulated protein able to induce a high degree of microtubule stability. STOP is abundant in neurons which contain large subpopulations of stable microtubules. Genomic clones spanning 67 kb and encompassing the mouse STOP gene (Mtap6) have been isolated and characterized. These clones derive from a single gene mapping to the E2-F1 region of mouse chromosome 7. The gene is composed of 4 exons that exhibit conventional vertebrate splicing sequences. Transcription of the gene initiate at multiple sites in a 85 nucleotide region located 530 bases upstream the translation initiation codon. Accordingly, the 5' flanking region of the gene lacks a TATA box or an initiator element at usual position. The protein encoded by the mouse STOP gene (Mtap6) is composed of 906 amino acids and presents a 91% identities with the rat brain STOP.

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).
