Abstract excerpt

Nuclear protein extracts from Mu-active, Mu-inactive and non-Mutator lines of maize were used to identify the binding sites for maize nuclear proteins in the terminal inverted repeats (TIR) of the Mu1 transposable element. We found binding activities of nuclear proteins that specifically interact with both TIRs of the Mu1 element. DNase I footprinting was performed to localize the binding sites. We found that the...
