Abstract excerpt
In the human nuclear genome only a few copies coding for full-length 7SL RNA genes exist. The Hs7SL-1 gene has recently been classified as type 4 of RNA polymerase III (pol III)-transcribed genes as it was demonstrated that mutations in an external transcriptional activator (ATF) binding site and in an internal CG dinucleotide at positions +15/+16 reduced 7SL RNA expression in vivo and in vitro. We have extended...
