Abstract excerpt
The murine Htf9-a/RanBP1 and Htf9-c genes are divergently transcribed from a shared TATA-less promoter. Transcription of both genes is initiated on complementary DNA strands and is controlled by cell cycle-dependent mechanisms. The bidirectional promoter harbors a genomic footprint flanking the major transcription start site of both genes. Transient promoter assays showed that the footprinted element is important...
