Identification of a class of chromatin boundary elements.

Molecular and cellular biology - 1 Dec 1998

Cuvier O, Hart C M, Laemmli U K

Abstract excerpt

Boundary elements are thought to define the ends of functionally independent domains of genetic activity. An assay for boundary activity based on this concept measures the ability to insulate a bracketed, chromosomally integrated reporter gene from position effects. Despite their presumed importance, the few examples identified to date apparently do not share sequence motifs or DNA binding proteins. The...
