Abstract

We report the cloning of the murine Na/P(i)-IIb cotransporter gene, which spans more than 18 kilobases and consists of 12 introns and 13 exons. Three promoter/reporter gene constructs, -159/+73, -429/+73 and -954/+73, showed significant luciferase activity (22-82-fold over background) when transfected into in rat intestinal epithelial (RIE-1) cells.
