Figure 7. Foreign genes inserted into the knob region are not silenced.

Figure 7

(a) A compiled summary of publicly available ChIP, RNA level or MNaseI protection data for the 200-kb region extending from the end of annotation of the right arm of chromosome 1. The colour code for the ChIP, RNA level and MNaseI data is shown on the left with their corresponding accession numbers. The ST-chromatin is indicated with a dotted box. Triangles indicate ura4+ gene insertion sites in the subtelomere (1-5, red), ST-chromatin (6-9, green) and euchromatin (10-11, black) regions. (b) Fivefold serial dilution of the indicated strains grown on the indicated plates. Strains labelled with ‘cent' have ura4+ inserted at the dg repeat of the pericentromere while ‘mat' has ura4+ inserted at the silent mating-type locus.
