Abstract
Pages L634–L644: Vijayakumar Boggaram and Ramgopal K. Margana. “Rabbit surfactant protein C: cDNA cloning and regulation of alternatively spliced surfactant protein C mRNAs.” Page L634, left-hand column, in the abstract, the sentence beginning on line 22 should read: Southern hybridization analysis of genomic DNA suggested that SP-C mRNAs are encoded by a single gene. Polymerase chain reaction-amplification of genomic DNA with oligonucleotide primers flanking the insertional sequence and sequence analysis of amplified DNA showed that SP-C mRNAs are produced by alternative use of 3' splice sites of intron 5 of SP-C gene. Page L634, left-hand column, paragraph 2, line 4 should read: SP-A [relative molecular weight (Mr) ≈35,000] and SP-D (Mr≈43,000) are hydrophilic proteins that are similar in having collagenous amino-terminus domain and noncollagenous lectinlike carboxy-terminus domain. SP-B (Mr ap8,000) and SP-C (Mr ap5,000) are hydrophobic proteins derived from larger precursor proteins by amino- and carboxy-terminus proteolytic processing.
