Abstract excerpt
In the liver, most insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) transcripts originate in exon 1, where important cis-regulatory regions are located downstream from the major transcription initiation sites. Within these regions, we have attempted to identify sequences which are involved in the decrease in IGF-I gene transcription associated with diabetes mellitus. The function of different genomic templates was assessed...
