Abstract

The calcitonin (CT) gene is alternatively expressed in a tissue‐specific fashion producing either the calcium regulatory hormone CT in the thyroid or the neuropeptide calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) in the brain. In medullary carcinoma of the thyroid both peptides are produced. We present here evidence for the existence in the human genome of a second CT gene, which is also expressed in human medullary thyroid carcinoma. This gene encodes a second human CGRP, differing from the known human CGRP in 3 of the 37 amino acids.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
