Abstract excerpt

We have investigated the DNA elements responsible for transcription from the proximal portion of the mouse neurofilament heavy gene (NF-H) promoter by in vitro transcription using extracts from expressing (brain) and non-expressing (liver) tissues. We have found that constructs containing 5' regi...
