Transcriptional regulation of the mouse steroidogenic acute regulatory protein gene by the cAMP response-element binding protein and steroidogenic factor 1
1 Jun 2003
Abstract excerpt
Transcriptional induction by cAMP is mediated through the interaction of the cAMP response-element binding protein (CREB) with a cAMP response element (CRE) in the promoter of target genes. The steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein gene is regulated by cAMP-mediated signaling in steroidogenic cells even though its promoter lacks a consensus CRE. Previously, we have identified three highly conserved 5'-CRE...
