title: Synthetic oligonucleotides as models of the superstructural features of the upstream regulative regions of the five pea rbcs genes.
abstract: Superstructural features of the upstream regulative regions of the five pea rbcS genes have been studied, using theoretical curvature profiles and electrophoretic properties of synthetic oligonucleotides as models of the DNA curved regions. The curvatures derived from both methods are in good agreement and seem correlated with the different transcription efficiency of the five genes.
