Readthrough transcripts refer to the fraction of transcripts that are not stopped by the terminator. (Readthrough is the same term used in translation to describe a ribosome’s suppression of termination codons.)

We perform DNase footprinting by binding the protein to its DNA target, then digesting the DNA–protein complex with DNase. 

When we electrophorese the resulting DNA fragments, the protein binding site shows up as a gap, or “footprint,” in the pattern where the protein protected the 

DNA from degradation.

GD cleaves Snake to its active form and forms a complex with Snake and uncleaved Easter proteins.

Easter protein is cleaved into its

active form.
