Efficient TGF-β Induction of the Smad7 Gene Requires Cooperation between AP-1, Sp1, and Smad Proteins on the Mouse Smad7 Promoter
1 Sept 2000
Abstract excerpt
Sma- and Mad-related protein 7 (Smad7) is an antagonist of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling, which has been shown to be induced by TGF-beta itself and also by other stimuli. In an effort to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the transcriptional regulation of the Smad7 gene by TGF-beta, we cloned and functionally characterized a mouse genomic DNA fragment encompassing the mouse...
