Abstract:Both transcription initiation and transcription elongation contribute to the regulation of steady-state c-myc RNA levels. We have used the Xenopus oocyte transcription assay to study premature transcription termination which occurs in the first exon and intron of the human c-myc gene. Previous studies showed that after injection into Xenopus oocytes transcription from the c-myc P1 promoter resulted in read-through transcripts whereas transcription from the stronger P2 promoter resulted in a combination of prem… Show more
