摘要: The T24/EJ allele of the Ha-ras proto-oncogene owes its powerful oncogenic activity not merely to well documented mutation that perturbs structure encoded polypeptide, but in addition a second single nucleotide alteration an intron causes tenfold increase expression. This effect on expression is maintained upon transfer surrounding DNA heterologous gene, and as such defines novel regulatory element.
