Note. The overlapping area of neighboring exons is shown in the structure of forward (RR-for) primers (nucleotides are in italics and bold). Primers 1Re-for and 8-9Re-rev include BamHI and XhoI restriction sites, respectively (nucleotides are shown by capital letters). Primer 8-9Re-rev contains a nucleotide sequence (15 nucleotides) of exon 8, nucleotide sequence of exon 9 (9 nucleotides), stop codon (tca - in bold and underlined) and the XhoI restriction site (CTCGAG)/
