Identification and Functional Characterization of Distinct Critically Important Bone Morphogenetic Protein-specific Response Elements in the Id1 Promoter
1 Feb 2002
Abstract excerpt
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) family members, which include bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and TGF-betas, elicit their cellular effects by activating specific Smad proteins, which control the transcription of target genes. BMPs and TGF-betas have overlapping as well as specific effects on mesenchymal cell differentiation for which the mechanisms are incompletely understood. Here we report that...
