A control region in the center of the 5S RNA gene directs specific initiation of transcription: II. The 3′ border of the region
TL;DR: It is concluded that a control region within the gene directs RNA polymerase III to initiate transcription approximately 50 nucleotides upstream from the 5' border of this region.

Gene linkage by RNA-DNA hybridization: I. Unique DNA sequences homologous to 4 s RNA, 5 s RNA and ribosomal RNA
Donald D. Brown,Carl S. Weber +1 more
TL;DR: A method for measuring sequence homology between high specific activity RNA's and DNA of Xenopus laevis is described and the relative abundance of nucleotide sequences homologous to rRNA and 5 s RNA in X. laevIS liver, erythrocyte, and embryonic DNA has been found to be similar.
