Abstract excerpt
Phosphorylation of the Ser(118) residue in the N-terminal A/B domain of the human oestrogen receptor alpha (hERalpha) by mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), stimulated via growth factor signalling pathways, is known to potentiate ERalpha ligand-induced transactivation function. Besides MAPK, cyclin dependent kinase 7 (Cdk7) in the TFIIH complex has also been found to potentiate hERalpha transactivation in...
