Cloning and Characterization of the Human Lung Endothelial-Cell-Specific Molecule-1 Promoter
1 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
Endothelial-cell-specific molecule-1 (ESM-1) is a cysteine-rich protein that is expressed primarily in endothelial cells of the lung, kidney and gut. In the present study, we have cloned and sequenced 3,888 bp of the 5' flanking region of the human ESM-1 gene. The full-length promoter directed high-level expression of the luciferase reporter gene in bovine lung microvascular endothelial cells and bovine aortic...
