Transforming Growth Factor β-Mediated Transcriptional Repression of c-<i>myc</i> Is Dependent on Direct Binding of Smad3 to a Novel Repressive Smad Binding Element
1 Mar 2004
Abstract excerpt
Smad proteins are the most well-characterized intracellular effectors of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) signal. The ability of the Smads to act as transcriptional activators via TGF-beta-induced recruitment to Smad binding elements (SBE) within the promoters of TGF-beta target genes has been firmly established. However, the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms involved in TGF-beta-mediated...
