Abstract excerpt
An experimentally introduced secondary structure in exon 2 adjacent to the 3' splice site of a yeast ACT-Escherichia coli lacZ fusion gene abolishes splicing in vivo and inhibits beta-galactosidase production. We have devised a genetic screen to isolate both cis and trans-acting mutants that restore beta-galactosidase activity. Two cis-acting mutants potentially destabilize the stem in the region close to the 3'...
