The Human Reduced Folate Carrier Gene Is Regulated by the AP2 and Sp1 Transcription Factor Families and a Functional 61-Base Pair Polymorphism
1 Nov 2002
Abstract excerpt
Recently, our laboratory reported an intricate regulation of the human reduced folate carrier (hRFC) gene, involving multiple promoters and noncoding exons. We localized promoter activity to a 452-bp GC-rich region upstream of noncoding exon A, including a 47-bp basal promoter with a CRE/AP-1-like consensus element that bound the bZip family of DNA-binding proteins (e.g. CREB-1 and c-Jun). We now report that...
