Downstream translation initiation abolished the inhibitory effect of AS transcripts. The scheme at the top shows two kinds of eco29kIR promoter lacZ fusions studied. Relative abundance of lacZ transcripts measured with qRT–PCR in cells harboring the following plasmids: pRAS-lacZ—an eco29kIR fragment (from −44 to +282) cloned into pLacZ; pRASmut3-lacZ—pRAS-lacZ with inactive AS promoters; pRAS_SD-lacZ—an eco29kIR fragment (from −44 to +282) cloned into pLacZ_SD; pRASmut3_SD-lacZ—pRAS_SD-lacZ with inactive AS promoters is shown below. The amount of cat transcript revealed with appropriate primers was used to normalize lacZ transcript abundance in each reaction mix.
