title: [Protein factors specifically binding to the regulatory elements of non-transcribed spacer of rat ribosomal genes].
abstract: Mouse, rat and human protein factors recognizing regulatory elements of nontranscribed spacer of rat ribosomal genes were studied by gel retardation assay. Protein factors bind specifically to the DNA fragments containing the core promoter sequence of RNA-polymerase I, to "spacer" promoter and to a putative enhancer sequence. Factors of mouse, rat and human nuclear extracts that recognize the region containing the core promoter sequence have similar molecular masses and are not identical to the previously described protein factor TIF-1B. Two factors that bind the "spacer" promoter region differ from the factors of the core promoter. "Spacer" promoter factors of mouse and rat nuclear extracts are probably identical, but differ from those of human extract. Protein factors, recognizing the putative enhancer region of rat and human extracts are alike but were not detected in mouse extract. Regions of nontranscribed spacer containing dispersed and tandem repeats do not bind any specific protein factors.
