Stretches of alternating poly(T-dG), with the capacity to form Z-DNA, are present in human liver transcripts.
A cDNA clone consisting of a stretch of poly(T-dG) alternating residues, a potential Z-DNA forming sequence, was identified in a human cDNA library. The result of Northern blot analysis confirms that this sequence is transcribed into polyadenylated RNA in human liver.
