DLP1 has two short alternatively spliced regions that are differentially expressed in tissues. (Top) Amino acid sequence of rat DLP1 showing two alternatively spliced regions. Each region has at least three differentially spliced forms. (Bottom) Brain expresses longer forms of DLP1 in both alternative splicing regions, and other tissues predominantly express the shorter forms. Two sets of specific PCR primers flanking two splicing regions, A and B, were used for RT-PCR with RNA from four different rat tissues (brain, liver, lung, and testis). Details in text.
