February 1996 in “Journal of biological chemistry/The Journal of biological chemistry” In this study, sequences upstream of the TGM3 gene were found to regulate epithelial-specific gene expression in keratinocytes, suggesting potential applications in gene therapy.
76 citations
,
February 1993 in “Journal of Biological Chemistry” This research observed that sheep and rabbit KAP6 genes, expressed in hair follicle cells, have high sequence similarity and indicate conservation due to evolutionary selection pressures.
