Abstract excerpt
T-cell activation requires signals from both the T-cell receptor (TcR) and other co-stimulatory molecules such as CD28. TcR- and CD28-mediated signals are integrated during T-cell activation resulting in the expression of cytokine genes such as interleukin-2 (IL-2). An enhancer element (CD28RE) of the IL-2 gene specifically responsive to CD28 signals has been previously identified and characterized. This response...
