Abstract excerpt
The transcriptional promoter of satellite 2 from the eastern newt, Notophthalmus viridescens, was analyzed by assaying the activity of deleted or mutated satellite 2 clones in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Two elements in the promoter were found to be important for transcription. These elements have sequences that are similar to the sequences of the octamer and the proximal sequence element of vertebrate snRNA genes...
