Notes:
We have sequenced the 5′ flanking region of the U2 gene and compared this with the 5′ flanking sequences of other snRNA genes from Schizosac-charomyces pombe. This revealed no regions of clear homology 5′ to a region surrounding the ‘TATA’ box at −32 to −29. Deletion analysis shows that a 5′ flanking region extending to only −33 is sufficient for accurate and efficient transcription of U2 in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
