Human Spot 14 Glucose and Thyroid Hormone Response: Characterization and Thyroid Hormone Response Element Identification
26 Aug 2003
Abstract excerpt
Spot 14 is a 17-kDa protein expressed in lipogenic tissues and is postulated to play a role in thyroid hormone stimulation of lipogenesis. To further our understanding of Spot 14 regulation in humans, our laboratory recently cloned the human Spot 14 gene. The gene is highly homologous to the rat Spot 14 ortholog and located on a chromosomal region implicated in human obesity. Because our understanding of Spot 14...
