Abstract excerpt

An RNA polymerase I termination site is found just upstream of the ribosomal gene promoter in mammals and amphibia. It has been suggested that this termination site may actively enhance ribosomal transcription in a process known as readthrough enhancement or that it may simply prevent the disrupt...
