2004 December, Goichi OkaharaShinobu Matsubaraet al., “Expression analyses of human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs): tissue-specific and developmental stage-dependent expression of HERVs”, in Genomics, volume 84, number 6, →DOI, page 988:RT-PCR primers for the identification of active HERV loci were designed from the sequences of predicted/expected loci and incorporated 0 to 3 ambiguous nucleotides taking the other homologous loci into account. […] Locus-specific primers were set in interexons. Those sequences and PCR conditions were as follows: […]
2013 December 6, Carlos A. OrozcoAndrés Acevedoet al., “The Combined Expression Patterns of Ikaros Isoforms Characterize Different Hematological Tumor Subtypes”, in PLOS One, volume 8, number 12, →DOI, page 3:The results of this analysis showed that there are significant differences between all the groups of pathologies studied regarding the level of expression of the various interexons, understanding significance in each group as the statistical difference found at least between a pair of pathologies concerning the values of expression in every interexon.
