Abstract excerpt
The adrenal steroid hormones, glucocorticoids, control many physiological responses to trauma, including elevated synthesis of fibrinogen, a major blood-clotting protein. Glucocorticoid regulation of the gamma-fibrinogen subunit gene in Xenopus laevis is mediated by a binding site for Xenopus glucocorticoid receptor accessory factor (XGRAF) and a contiguous glucocorticoid response element (GRE) half-site. Here,...
