Abstract excerpt
BCL-6 functions as a potent transcriptional repressor that binds with specificity to DNA elements bearing marked similarity to STAT recognition sequences. Previous studies have demonstrated that BCL-6 and Stat6 can both bind and regulate the Iepsilon promoter that controls immunoglobulin heavy chain class switching to IgE. Examination of BCL-6-/- and BCL-6-/-Stat6-/- mice has demonstrated that BCL-6 is a...
