High impact information on H1FOO

  • The gene, named osH1, included five exons as predicted by the NCBI annotation project of the human genome, although the actual splicing site at the 3(') end of exon 3 was different by 48 nucleotides from the prediction [1].
  • The presence of polyadenylation signals and successful amplification of cDNA by RT-PCR using an oligo(dT) primer suggested that the osH1 mRNA is polyadenylated unlike somatic H1 mRNA [1].
