Subnuclear compartmentation is postulated to play an important role in many aspects of nuclear metabolism. To directly test an application of this model to transcription factor function, we examined the subnuclear partitioning behavior of Pit-1, a tissue-specific, POU-class transactivator. Biochemic

A second Pit-1 gene in carp (Cyprinus carpio), including the complete structural gene and 1.1 kb of promoter region, was identified and completely sequenced. The exon-intron structure was determined, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) experiments suggest that only one Pit-1
Lancelets, known also as amphioxus, are protochordates that share common archetypal features with vertebrates. Recently, several developmental and molecular biology studies have pointed out homologies between anatomical structures of lancelets and vertebrates. We have studied the head region of the
