Transcription initiation is controlled by three core promoter elements in the <i>hgl5</i> gene of the protozoan parasite <i>Entamoeba histolytica</i>
5 Aug 1997
Abstract excerpt
Entamoeba histolytica is a single cell eukaryote that is the etiologic agent of amoebic colitis. Core promoter elements of E. histolytica protein encoding genes include a TATA-like sequence (GTATTTAAAG/C) at -30, a novel element designated GAAC (GAACT) that has a variable location between TATA and the site of transcription initiation, and a putative initiator (Inr) element (AAAAATTCA) overlying the site of...
