Abstract excerpt
The transcription of several Syrian hamster 5S RNA-encoding genes (5S genes) containing single and multiple point mutations in and around the intragenic control region has been analyzed in a HeLa cell-free system. Although most genes with point mutations displayed normal levels of transcription, several exhibited a three- to fivefold reduction in transcription. These mutations interfere with the interaction...
