Abstract excerpt
The A-Myb and c-Myb transcription factors share a highly conserved DNA-binding domain and activate the same promoters in reporter gene assays. However, the two proteins have distinct biological activities, and expressing them individually in human cells leads to the activation of distinct sets of endogenous genes, suggesting that each protein has a unique transcriptional specificity. Here, the structural and...
