Abstract excerpt
In some cases core histone genes in the mouse depend on intragenic sequence elements for high level expression [Gene 176 (1996) 1]. Here we report that the highly expressed gene for rat linker histone H1d also contains an intragenic activating region (IAR). Using transient transfection assays in mouse fibroblast NIH3T3 cells, we showed that rat H1d contains a downstream region (+21 to +116) that imparts a two- to...
