5'-RACE and genomic cloning were used to determine that the mouse TBP (mTBP) gene consists of one 5'-terminal non-coding exon followed by seven protein-coding exons. The region upstream of the first exon lacks a TATA-box. Hence, as with the case of other genes carrying TATA-less promoter, transcription starts from a cluster of sites which are located at the restricted region of mTBP gene. Interestingly, sequences of this region are well conserved between human and mouse TBP genes, suggesting that both mouse and human TBP genes drive mRNA synthesis in a similar way, and the sequence homology between two genes was used to assign a putative start point for the human TBP gene. Mouse, human, and Trimersurus gramineus (green habu snake) TBP genes share two GC-rich regions in their promoter regions. Thus, it is probable that diverse species of vertebrates commonly use TATA-less promoter bearing GC-rich regions to direct ubiquitous TBP expression.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 June 2015.
All research outputs
#3,778,512
of 34,360,889 outputs
Outputs from Biochemical & Biophysical Research Communications
#1,166
of 33,075 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,425
of 40,302 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Biochemical & Biophysical Research Communications
#7
of 171 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,360,889 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 88th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 33,075 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.2. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 93% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 40,302 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 171 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its contemporaries.
