The 4428 nt sequenced region includes the following restriction sites (nt from the 5' end): PstI--531, 642, 1011 (all intron 1), 1850 (intron 2); 3218 (intron 3); EcoRI--4211 (exon 4).

IMPORTANT: To prevent amplification of a rearranged and/or deleted cosmid, we recommend streaking on LB + amp plates at 30C and picking small colonies for liquid culture.

The sequence record begins at a Sp1 binding site consensus approximately 260 bp 5' to the initiator ATG.

Contains the complete gene (4 exons).

Introns 2 and 3 contain Alu repeats.
