A comprehensive promoter landscape identifies a novel promoter for CD133 in restricted tissues, cancers and stem cells

PROM1 is the gene encoding prominin-1 or CD133, an important cell surface marker for the isolation of both normal and cancer stem cells. PROM1 transcripts initiate at a range of transcription start sites (TSS) associated with distinct tissue and cancer expression profiles. Using high resolution Cap...
