Abstract

Antisera against two peptides, corresponding to different domains of the cystic fibrosis gene product CFTR, have been raised and extensively characterized. Both antisera recognize CFTR as a 165-kDa polypeptide in Western analysis of cells transfected with CFTR cDNA as well as in epithelial cell lines. The cell and tissue distribution of CFTR has been studied by immunocytochemistry. CFTR is abundant in epithelial cells, including those lining sweat ducts, small pancreatic ducts, and intestinal crypts. Unexpectedly, the level of CFTR in lung epithelia is relatively low, while it is abundant in the epithelia of kidney tubules. The protein appears to be restricted to the apical, rather than basolateral, regions of epithelial cells and at least a proportion is associated with the plasma membrane. The cell and tissue distributions of CFTR are consistent with a function for this protein as a chloride channel or as a regulator of channel activity.

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.
