The result of 5′-RACE and the sequence of promoter region and 5′-UTR of

NDST-2 gene. (A) 5′-RACE using mRNA derived from MST cells. A part of adaptor used in 5′-RACE and 5′-end of NDST-2 cDNA are shown. (B) The sequence of promoter region and 5′-UTR of theNDST-2 gene. The transcription initiation site was indicated as +1. The sequence in the promoter region is shown by lower case, and that of the 5′-UTR is shown by capitals.
