Porcine DC-SIGN: molecular cloning, gene structure, tissue distribution and binding characteristics.

"after the submission of our manuscript a sequence with genbank accession number nm_001129972 1 ( eu442799 ) identical to the coding region of the full-length pdc-sign cdna sequence ( eu684956 ) reported in this manuscript was released in the ncbi genbank database.; the nucleotide sequences of the full-length cdna and the gene of porcine dc-sign reported in this paper have been deposited in the genbank database with accession numbers eu684956 and eu684955 ."
