Identification of the cAMP-Responsive Enhancer of the Murine ABCA1 Gene
23 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To determine the mechanism by which expression of the murine ABCA1 gene is highly induced by cAMP analogues. METHODS AND RESULTS: ABCA1 mRNA turnover cannot account for its induction by cAMP. Thus cAMP induction of ABCA1 mRNA occurs at a transcriptional level. Shotgun cloning DNA fragments from the murine ABCA1 locus identified a strong cAMP responsive enhancer located in the first intron, which led to...
