Abstract excerpt

Saccharomyces cerevisiae mRNA 5'-ends map at a variable distance from the TATA element. The mechanism for the choice of the transcription Initiation Region (IR) over other neighbouring sequences is not clearly understood. Sequences on the coding strand flanking the IR of 95 yeast RNA polymerase I...
