Abstract
1. Recently the complete primary structure of a human glandular kallikrein gene, hGK-1, was reported. The present paper presents further structural information. 2. Associated with the gene were three Alu repeated sequences; one in the second intron and two approximately 0.4 kb and 1.2 kb upstream. 3. The 5' non-coding and 5' flanking DNA was highly homologous to that in the mouse genes. 4. Different polyadenylation signals are used in different human kallikrein genes.Keywords
