Abstract excerpt
The expression of transcription factor Ets-1 is induced in endothelial cells (ECs) by angiogenic factor; and in turn Ets-1 converts ECs to angiogenic invasive phenotype. In order to control angiogenesis, we constructed a transdominant mutant Ets-1 (TMEts-1) which acts as a dominant negative molecule. This molecule inhibited the DNA binding and the transactivation activity of the wild-type Ets-1. Stable...
