Abstract excerpt
The chromatin structure of a portion of yeast transposable elements known to be responsible for regulation of the expression of the adjacent HIS4 gene has been investigated, using the nuclease probe micrococcal nuclease. Yeast strains containing Ty917 or derivatives of this element that possess either a His-, weak His+, or strong His+ phenotype were examined. The chromatin at the Ty/HIS4 junction region was...
