title: Nature of DNA sequences at the attachment regions of genes to the nuclear matrix.
abstract: Matrix-attached regions (MARs) have been demonstrated to nest origins of replication and transcriptional enhancers. A set of 13 rules is proposed aimed at facilitating the classification of a DNA sequence as a matrix attachment region.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
