Abstract excerpt
The accessory factor 1 (AF1) element is an upstream transcriptional control region that plays a role in the response of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) gene to both glucocorticoids and retinoic acid. We demonstrate here that retinoic acid receptor alpha (RAR alpha) binds to a sequence within the AF1 element, TGACCT (site B), that is a consensus retinoic acid response element (RARE) half-site. A...
