The rat androgen-binding protein (ABP/SHBG) gene contains triplet repeats similar to unstable triplets: Evidence that the ABP/SHBG and the fragile X-related 2 genes overlap

The rat androgen-binding protein/sex hormone-binding globulin (ABP/SHBG) gene is regulated by promoters P1 and PA. P1 regulates the mRNA encoding secreted ABP/SHBG, whereas PA regulates an alternate mRNA which encodes a modified protein that is targeted to the nucleus. Promoter PA is GC rich, consisting of 70-80% GC residues. During routine BLAST sequence analysis it was discovered that this GC-rich region is highly related to the human fragile X-related protein 2 (FXR-2) 5'-untranslated RNA… Expand
