title: A trans-acting factor is responsible for the simian virus 40 enhancer activity in vitro.
abstract: Stimulation of in vitro transcription by the simian virus 40 enhancer involves a rapid and stable binding of a trans-acting factor with both the 5'- and 3'-domains of the enhancer sequence. The enhancer factor, which differs from other types of transcriptional factors, can interact with other enhancer elements.
