Identification of an intronic enhancer that nullifies upstream repression of SPARC gene expression.

abstract：:Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) were used to define the regions of the INO1 promoter that interact with factors present in extracts prepared from the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisae. These experiments identified three different types of protein:DNA complexes that assemble with the INO1 promoter. Formation ...
