We have isolated and sequenced a genomic fragment containing sequences complementary to chicken Ul RNA. The sequence of this genomic Ul gene is completely homologous and colinear with that of chicken Ul RNA. This Ul gene is part of a multigene family (6-10 copies per haploid genome), and these loci do not appear to be closely clustered. Sequences complementary to other snRNAs are not present within the 2.5 kb genomic fragment containing the Ul gene. We have determined that Ul RNA is synthesized by polymerase II; however, a “Hogness box” is not present upstream from its cap site at the position usually observed for mRNA genes. The synthesis of Ul RNA in oviduct nuclei during different states of hormonal induction also appears to be constitutive.
