The tissue-specific chicken histone H5 gene is transcribed with fidelity in Xenopus laevis oocytes
Abstract
Vectors containing the chicken H5 gene were micro-injected into the nucleus of Xenopus laevis oocytes. Transcription of the H5 gene was accurately initiated and H5 transcripts with discrete 3' termini were produced. H5 transcripts were not polyadenylated in oocyte nuclei.
