Abstract
The nucleotide sequence and exon-intron organization of the proacrosin gene was determined. It consists of 6 exons and 5 introns of which one is located in the 5′ untranslated region. The transcription initiation site was determined at position 471 (564 nucleotides upstream of ATC), TATA-and TAAT-boxes were found 588 and 656 bp upstream of the ATG-translation start point, respectively.
