Abstract excerpt
The transcriptional activation of the prostaglandin G/H synthase-2 (PGHS-2) gene in granulosa cells is required for ovulation. To directly study the ability of upstream stimulatory factor 1 (USF1) and USF2 to trans-activate the bovine PGHS-2 promoter in granulosa cells, USF1 or USF2 expression vectors were cotransfected with the PGHS-2/luciferase (LUC) chimeric construct, -149/-2PGHS-2.LUC. Results revealed that...
