Zusammenfassung
Es sind verschiedene Beispiele eukaryotischer Gene bekannt, die sich von den λ Genen durch eine Besonderheit unterscheiden: Ihre Transkription wird aktiviert, wenn ein Protein an eine DNA-Sequenz bindet, die mehrere hundert Basenpaare vom Startpunkt der RNA entfernt liegt. Zu diesen Beispielen gehören menschliche Gene ebenso wie Gene von Nagern und Gene aus der Hefe.
