M. Anger et al., THE SARCO(ENDO)PLASMIC RETICULUM CA2-ATPASE MESSENGER-RNA ISOFORM, SERCA-3, IS EXPRESSED IN ENDOTHELIAL AND EPITHELIAL-CELLS IN VARIOUS ORGANS(), FEBS letters, 334(1), 1993, pp. 45-48
The sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase mRNA isoform, SERCA 3, wa
s previously shown to be expressed in a great variety of muscle and no
n-muscle tissues [(1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 18561-18568] but its cell
ular localization within these organs was unknown. We have used in sit
u hybridization and RNase protection techniques to demonstrate that SE
RCA 3 mRNA is expressed in specific cell types, namely the endothelial
and epithelial cells.
