A corrected sequence for the predicted protein from the mitogen-inducible TIS11 primary response gene

Abstract

We previously reported the sequence of a cDNA, TIS11, cloned from TPA-treated Swiss 3T3 cells. Two laboratories have reported sequences for cDNAs that have a region of identity with the TIS11 cDNA, but differ in their 5' and 3' flanking regions. We now report that the original TIS11 cDNA is likely to be a chimeric molecule, and find that the TIS11 gene encodes a protein identical to the TTP and Nup475 genes.
