The Human IL-3 Locus Is Regulated Cooperatively by Two NFAT-Dependent Enhancers That Have Distinct Tissue-Specific Activities
1 Aug 2002
Abstract excerpt
The human IL-3 gene is expressed by activated T cells, mast cells, and eosinophils. We previously identified an enhancer 14 kb upstream of the IL-3 gene, but this element only functioned in a subset of T cells and not in mast cells. To identify additional mechanisms governing IL-3 gene expression, we mapped DNase I hypersensitive (DH) sites and evolutionarily conserved DNA sequences in the IL-3 locus. The most...
