Journal of Biological Chemistry: Hormone-induced and DNA Demethylation-induced Relief of a Tissue-specific and Developmentally Regulated Block in Transcriptional Elongation*
December 19, 2014Abstract Genome-wide studies have revealed that genes commonly have a high density of RNA polymerase II just downstream of the transcription start site. This has raised the possibility that genes are commonly regulated by transcriptional elongation, bu …
