Abstract excerpt
We have characterized further the antioxidant responsive element (ARE) identified in the 5'-flanking region of the rat glutathione S-transferase Ya subunit gene and the NAD(P)H:quinone reductase gene by mutational and deletion analyses. Our data suggest that the sequence, 5'-puGTGACNNNGC-3' 3'-py...
