TL;DR: A DNA segment close to the 5' end of the chicken adult beta-globin gene contains a hypersensitive site for nuclease action, which is in fact an accessible region which extends from approximately 60 to approximately 260 base pairs 5' from the start of mRNA transcription.

Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is shown that this sequence activates transcription of a heterologous gene in a cell-cycle-dependent fashion indistinguishable from that of the wild-type HO promoter, which must contain at least two essential upstream activation sequences.

TL;DR: A genetically engineered mouse model is used to show that a single dose of burning ultraviolet radiation to neonates, but not adults, is necessary and sufficient to induce tumours with high penetrance which are reminiscent of human melanoma.
Abstract: Retrospective epidemiological data have indicated that cutaneous malignant melanoma may arise as a consequence of intense, intermittent exposure of the skin to ultraviolet radiation, particularly in children, rather than from the cumulative lifetime exposure that is associated with other forms of skin cancer. Here we use a genetically engineered mouse model to show that a single dose of burning ultraviolet radiation to neonates, but not adults, is necessary and sufficient to induce tumours with high penetrance which are reminiscent of human melanoma. Our results provide experimental support for epidemiological evidence that childhood sunburn poses a significant risk of developing this potentially fatal disease.

TL;DR: This work has shown that specific mutations in a conserved single-stranded loop sequence in yeast U5 snRNA can activate cleavage of G1----A mutant pre-mRNAs at aberrant 5' splice sites and facilitate processing of dead-end lariat intermediates to mRNA.
