Abstract excerpt
Transcription from the rat transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-alpha) promoter initiates at multiple sites within a 200-bp G+C-rich region that lacks TATA and CAAT motifs but contains multiple potential binding sites for the transcription factor Sp1. In the present study, we used deletion analysis to establish the 5' boundary of sequences required for efficient transcription from the predominant -58 start site....
