Abstract excerpt
Most pre-mRNAs require an intron for efficient processing in higher eukaryotes. To test the hypothesis that intron-independent gene expression involves positive, cis-acting RNA sequence elements, we constructed chimeric genes in which various regions of the naturally intronless HSV-TK gene were inserted into an intronless variant of the highly intron-dependent human beta-globin gene. Using a transient...
