Species-specific alternative splicing of the epidermal growth factor-like domain 1 of cartilage aggrecan

Aggrecan transcripts contain two alternatively spliced exons that code for two epidermal growth factor-like domains (EGF1 and EGF2). Whereas the EGF2 sequence is expressed at a uniform level among different species, the EGF1 sequence has been detected only in human aggrecan transcripts. In this stud...
