Sequence of the precursor of intestinal lactase-phlorizin hydrolase from fetal rat

Abstract

The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA corresponding to the precursor of fetal rat intestinal lactase-phlorizin hydrolase was determined. The precursor consists of four tandemly organized homologous domains flanked by a signal peptide in the N-terminal region and by a transmembrane peptide in the C-terminal region.
