The NFY transcription factor functions as a repressor and activator of the von Willebrand factor promoter
1 Apr 2002
Abstract excerpt
Human von Willebrand factor (VWF) gene sequences -487 to +247 function as an endothelial-specific promoter in vitro. Analysis of the activation mechanism of the VWF promoter has resulted in the identification of a number of cis-acting elements and trans-acting factors that regulate its activity. The GATA and Ets transcription factors were shown to function as activators of transcription, whereas NF1 and Oct1 were...
