A methyl-sensitive element induces bidirectional transcription in TATA-less CpG island-associated promoters.
How TATA-less promoters such as those within CpG islands (CGI) control gene expression is still a subject of active research. Here, we have identified the "CGCG element", a ten-base pair motif with a consensus sequence of TCTCGCGAGA present in a group of promoter-associated CGI-enriched in...
