ABSTRACT:
An isolated cis-acting cellular nucleic acid molecule from a histone gene which suppresses splicing and facilitates transport of unspliced RNA and RNA from intronless DNA from a cell nucleus to the cytoplasm of the cell is described, as well as expression vectors and recombinant host cells containing the nucleic acid molecule and methods of use therefor.
