Abstract excerpt
Transforming growth factor-beta3 (TGF-beta3) has a specific role in vivo in the patterning of embryonic and tissue-specific gene expression. We have cloned and sequenced the mouse TGF-beta3 5'-flanking region to study the transcriptional regulation of this gene. Promoter fragments were cloned into a promoterless luciferase reporter plasmid to study functional activity in a human skin melanoma cell line A375...
