Abstract excerpt
To explore possible mechanisms of intron-mediated enhancement of gene expression, the features of PAT1 intron 1 required to elevate mRNA accumulation were systematically tested in transgenic Arabidopsis. This intron is remarkably resilient, retaining some ability to increase mRNA accumulation when splicing was prevented by mutation of 5' and 3' splice sites, branchpoint sequences, or when intron U-richness was...
