Promoter structure and transcription initiation sites of the human death receptor 5/TRAIL‐R2 gene 1
2 Nov 2001
Abstract excerpt
The death receptor 5 (DR5) is a receptor for tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand and is able to induce apoptosis in various tumor cells. The expression of DR5 is up-regulated at the transcriptional level by p53, genotoxic stress and so on. To investigate the structure of the DR5 gene promoter, we screened and sequenced a genomic clone containing the 5'-flanking region of the DR5 gene. RNase...
