    H Watanabe
    Laboratory of Developmental Biology, National Institute of Dental Research, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20892
    Nat Genet 7:154-7. 1994
    ..DNA sequencing of the aggrecan gene identified a 7 bp deletion in exon 5 resulting in a severely truncated molecule. The finding of an aggrecan mutation in the cmd mouse confirms the critical role of aggrecan in cartilage formation...
  59. ncbi Cloning and expression of the mouse laminin gamma 2 (B2t) chain, a subunit of epithelial cell laminin
    S Sugiyama
    Laboratory of Developmental Biology, National Institute of Dental Research, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20892
    Eur J Biochem 228:120-8. 1995
    ..This protein complex is characteristic of the kalinin (nicein/epiligrin) complex, and provides further evidence that these proteins are identical and that the gamma 2 chain is the subunit of the epithelial-cell-specific laminin...
  60. ncbi A compilation of partial sequences of randomly selected cDNA clones from the rat incisor
    Y Matsuki
    Laboratory of Developmental Biology, National Institute of Dental Research, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20892
    J Dent Res 74:307-12. 1995
    ..Further characterization of the clones described in this paper should lead to the discovery of novel genes important for tooth development...
  61. ncbi Isolation of genomic DNA clones spanning the entire fibronectin gene
    H Hirano
    Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 80:46-50. 1983
    ..These results suggest that the gene for fibronectin may have arisen by multiple gene duplications of a primordial gene or genes approximately equal to 150 base pairs long...
  62. ncbi Assignment of the gene encoding the alpha 1 subunit of the neuroendocrine/brain-type calcium channel (CACNL1A2) to human chromosome 3, band p14.3
