Microphthalmia Transcription Factor and PU.1 Synergistically Induce the Leukocyte Receptor Osteoclast-associated Receptor Gene Expression
1 Jun 2003
Abstract excerpt
We have recently reported the identification of a novel member of the leukocyte receptor family, osteoclast-associated receptor (OSCAR), which has two Ig-like domains and functions as a bone-specific regulator of osteoclast differentiation. Here, we have cloned the OSCAR promoter region to examine its regulation by transcription factors. The 1.7-kb promoter region of the mouse OSCAR gene contains two potential...
