Supplementary Material and Methods:
Material and Methods(PDF file)
Sequences of oligonucleotide primers used for RT-PCR studies and for mapping the mmu21 genes on mouse chromosomes. Primers are given with reference to clone numbers and gene names. For mapping, in silico information is also indicated together with synteny between HSA21 and MMU16, 10 and 17 (mmu21 primers mapping (PDF file))
