IFN- ¥ has been shown to induce expression of the class II transcriptional activator (CIITA).
#Id: 465
#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
Introns have negative Fold Potential i.e. potential to form stem loop.
#Id: 466
Overlapping gene are the same sequence of DNA encodes two nonhomologous proteins because it uses more than one reading frame.
#Id: 467
Mutations occur at the same rate in both exons and introns, but exon mutations are eliminated more effectively by selection.
#Id: 468
Introns may more freely accumulate point substitutions and other changes due to no selection pressure.
#Id: 469
Introns evolve or accumulate mutations/changes much more rapidly than exons
#Id: 470
Intron do not face selective pressure to produce a polypeptide with a useful sequence hence highly variable.
