<em>In Vitro</em> and <em>Ex Vivo</em> Analysis of <em>CHRNA3</em> and <em>CHRNA5</em> Haplotype Expression by Glenn A. Doyle (209929)

“…For <em>in vitro</em> analyses, promoter haplotypes were sub-cloned into a luciferase reporter vector. When assessed in BE(2)-C cells, luciferase expression was equivalent among <em>CHRNA3</em> haplotypes, but the combination of deletion at rs3841324 and variation at rs503464 decreased <em>CHRNA5</em> promoter-derived luciferase activity, possibly due to loss of an SP-1 and other site(s). …”
