Identification of a 10-base pair protein binding site in the promoter of the hamster H3.2 gene required for the S phase dependent increase in transcription and its interaction with a Jun-like nuclear factor.

Abstract excerpt

The hamster histone H3.2 promoter contains an AP-1-like element (referred to as site X) that contains the sequence CGAGTCA. This site differs from the Jun/AP-1 consensus sequence by one base and is also similar to the cyclic AMP response element. Similar AP-1/cyclic AMP response element-like sites have been found in the promoters of other histone H3 genes and are known to bind proteins either in vivo or in vitro....
