ISOFORMS OF HUMAN SOMATOSTATIN RECEPTOR TYPE 5 PRODUCED BY ALTERNATIVE PROCESSING AND OLIGONUCLEOTIDE PAIRS FOR DETECTION THEREOF BY PCR

摘要

The present invention concerns two human nucleic acids comprising sequences which code two novel isoforms of human somatostatin receptor type 5 produced by alternative adjustment, called sst5B and sst5C and with possible uses in tumoral processes. Additionally, the invention concerns oligonucleotide pairs used for the differential detection of said isoforms by means of the PCR technique in different tissues.
