Abstract excerpt
Recent evidence from our laboratory demonstrated that the OCT1 protein was necessary for GnRH gene promoter pulse activity through its interaction with a specific OCT1 binding site (OCT1BS-a, -1,774/-1,781). In light of the importance of this POU homeoprotein in pulsatile function, we focused on two other highly conserved OCT1 sites within this region, OCT1BS-b (-1,694/-1,701, previously AT-b), and OCT1BS-c...
