Abstract excerpt
To better understand the molecular mechanisms of cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) regulation, we have characterized a region of the promoter (+3 to -176) that contains a single E-box and an adjacent nuclear factor 1 (NF1)-like DNA binding site. The E-box was shown to specifically bind nuclear proteins that were recognized by antibodies against upstream stimulatory factor (USF) 1 and 2. Comparison of NF1 binding...
