RESUMO
In vitro reactions identified a transcription initiation site located 740 nucleotides upstream of the dihydrofolate reductase translational start. Transcription from this site proceeded in the direction opposite to that of dihydrofolate reductase mRNA. Deletion mapping indicated that this new promoter can be separated from the dihydrofolate reductase promoter and that separation increased transcription at -740. Transcripts that initiate at -740 were also detected in cellular RNA, indicating that this is a bona fide transcription initiation site in vivo.
