Abstract excerpt
The modulation of RNA polymerase II processivity through the untranslated N-myc first exon represents an important mechanism governing N-myc mRNA levels during normal development. In this study, we employed the rat embryo fibroblast (REF) cooperation assay as a functional means to (i) map N-myc first exon sequences involved in the regulation of N-myc gene expression and specifically their contribution to...
