【 摘 要 】

We have developed a method to localize specific sites where RNA elongation is arrested due to DNA-bound ligands. The method was used to determine apparent binding sites for actinomycin D. We have found 14 strong RNA hindrance sites along nucleotide sequence of T7 and D111 T7 DNA of 380 nucleotides full length under low actinomycin D concentration conditions. Nucleotide sequence of all the sites is described by general formula XGCY where X ‡ G and Y ‡ C.
