Dm. Hwang et al., SINGLE-PASS SEQUENCING OF A UNIDIRECTIONAL HUMAN FETAL HEART CDNA LIBRARY TO DISCOVER NOVEL GENES OF THE CARDIOVASCULAR-SYSTEM, Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 26(10), 1994, pp. 1329-1333
A human fetal heart cDNA library was constructed in the lambda gt22A e
xpression vector. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify
the cDNA inserts. PCR products were purified and used in cycle sequenc
ing reactions in the presence of a fluorescein-conjugated primer and e
lectrophoresed on a Pharmacia A.L.F. Sequencer. Partial cDNA sequences
, or expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were searched against the Genbank
and EMBL databases to identify novel genes expressed in the human card
iovascular system.
