PU.1 and Multiple IFN Regulatory Factor Proteins Synergize to Mediate Transcriptional Activation of the Human IL-1β Gene
1 Jun 2001
Abstract excerpt
Both lymphoid and myeloid cells express two related members of the IFN regulatory factor (IRF) family of transcription factors, specifically IRF-4 and IFN consensus binding protein (ICSBP or IRF-8). We previously reported that macrophages express IRF-4 and in combination with the ETS-like protein PU.1 can synergistically activate a human IL-1beta reporter gene. Here we report that this synergy is mediated by a...
