Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 32 words
An isolated transcriptional regulatory element comprising (a) a nucleotide sequence having nucleotides 1 to 560 of the sequence as shown in SEQ. ID. NO. 5, and (b) nucleotide sequences complementary to (a).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 32 words
An isolated transcriptional regulatory element comprising (a) a nucleotide sequence having nucleotides 1 to 560 of the sequence as shown in SEQ. ID. NO. 5, and (b) nucleotide sequences complementary to (a).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
A recombinant DNA molecule comprising a transcriptional regulatory element as claimed in claim 1 and a gene operatively linked thereto.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
A recombinant DNA molecule as claimed in claim 2 wherein the gene is a reporter gene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
A recombinant DNA molecule as claimed in claim 2 wherein the gene encodes a toxic or therapeutic substance or an angiogenic factor.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 23 words
A recombinant DNA molecule comprising a transcriptional regulatory element as claimed in claim 1 operatively linked to a gene and a reporter gene.
