Regulation of the Megakaryocytic Glycoprotein IX Promoter by the Oncogenic Ets Transcription Factor Fli-1
15 Apr 1999
Abstract excerpt
Glycoprotein (GP) IX is a subunit of the von Willebrand receptor, GPIb-V-IX, which mediates adhesion of platelets to the subendothelium of damaged blood vessels. Previous characterization of the GPIX promoter identified a functional Ets site that, when disrupted, reduced promoter activity. However, the Ets protein(s) that regulated GPIX promoter expression was unknown. In this study, transient cotransfection of...
