A conserved heptamer upstream of the IgH promoter region octamer can be the site of a coordinate protein-DNA interaction (1988)

Landolfi, Nicholas F., Yin, Xiao-Ming, Capra, J.Donald, Tucker, Philip W.

Immunoglobulin genes contain a conserved eight base sequence element 5′ to the site of transcription initiation. This octamer can serve as a site for the binding of nuclear proteins which are...
