RNA polymerase III and RNA polymerase II promoter complexes are heterochromatin barriers in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The EMBO journal - 1 Feb 2001

Donze D, Kamakaka R T

Abstract excerpt

The chromosomes of eukaryotes are organized into structurally and functionally discrete domains. Several DNA elements have been identified that act to separate these chromatin domains. We report a detailed characterization of one of these elements, identifying it as a unique tRNA gene possessing the ability to block the spread of silent chromatin in Saccharomyces cerevisiae efficiently. Transcriptional potential...
