Evidence for a DNA-based mechanism of intron-mediated enhancement

Many introns significantly increase gene expression through a process termed Intron-Mediated Enhancement (IME). Introns exist in the transcribed DNA and the nascent RNA, and could affect expression from either location. To determine which is more relevant to IME, hybrid introns were constructed that...
