14.3. The RNA secondary structure of androgen receptor-FL and V7 transcripts reveals novel regulatory region

Rouse Warren B. , Tompkins Van S. , O'Leary Collin A. , Moss Walter N.

Brief Summary:This basic research study examined post-transcriptional regulation of the human androgen receptor (AR) using three different human cell lines. The authors studied the structure of two key AR isoforms, full length (AR-FL) and truncated (AR-V7), by computational and experimental analyses and revealed novel insights into the functionally relevant structures in the 5′ and 3′ UTRs of AR-FL for AR expression.The AR plays important rol...
