Abstract excerpt
Several investigators have suggested that secondary structures in DNA may be involved with physiologic gene regulatory processes in higher organisms. This hypothesis has been difficult to prove, however, since naturally occurring mutations that alter secondary DNA structures have not yet been identified. In this report, we describe a secondary DNA structure upstream from the human gamma-globin genes; this...
