Glucokinase contributes to the maintenance of blood glucose homeostasis by catalyzing the high K, phosphorylation of glucose in the liver and the pancreatic P cell, the only two tissues known to express this enzyme. Molecular biological studies of the glucokinase gene and its products have advanced

The molecular basis for adipose-specific gene expression is not known. To approach the problem of adipocyte gene expression, we have analyzed in detail the capacity of the 5'-flanking region of the adipocyte P2 (aP2) gene to direct cell-type specific gene expression. Although the proximal promoter c
## Abstract Tissueβspecific cellβaggregating factors were previously obtained from the supernatant media of embryonic cell cultures. We describe here that such factors can be extracted from cellβmembrane preparations derived directly from embryonic tissues: neural retina, cerebrum, and spinal cord
## Abstract __Ehox__ is an Xβlinked paired like homeobox gene identified from a differentiating embryonic stem (ES) cell cDNA library and is expressed at low levels in the preimplantation blastocyst and in ES cells in vitro. In embryos at 6.5 days post coitum (dpc), __Ehox__ expression was restrict
A novel monoclonal antibody designated EEM-1 is described. EEM-1 recognizes an intracellular protein with an apparent molecular weight of >250 kDa. Expression of the EEM-1 antigen is largely confined to extra-embryonic membranes, but some expression does occur in the embryo. In the embryonic day 6 (
