Abstract excerpt
The HMRE silencer of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been previously shown to transcriptionally repress class II and class III genes integrated within the HMR silent mating-type locus up to 2.6 kb away. Here we study the ability of this element to repress at an ectopic position, independent of seque...
