Characterization of the 5’flanking Region of the Human chk1 Gene: Identification of E2F1 Functional Sites
28 Nov 2003
Abstract excerpt
Chk1 kinase is a key signal transducer in the checkpoint pathways responding to DNA damage. Chk1 has been shown to be transcriptionally down-regulated in response to cis-dichloro-diamino platinum treatment in a p53-dependent manner. Now we isolated and characterised the 5' flanking region of the Chk1 gene. We demonstrated that the isolated region has promoter activity when cloned upstream to a reporter luciferase...
