Abstract

Background: Fut7 gene expression is tightly regulated and controls leukocyte traffic. Results: A 12.7 kb genomic interval controls Fut7 gene expression in all cell types. Conclusion: This interval therefore represents the functional boundaries of the Fut7 locus. Significance: All cis-acting genetic elements that control Fut7 expression are within this genomic interval.
