Abstract excerpt
The NFAT gene encodes the only homolog in Drosophila of the five human Nuclear Factors of Activated T-cells, NFAT1-5. Its rel homology domain is most similar to that of NFAT5, and like the latter it lacks conserved AP1 and calcineurin binding sites. Two promoters give rise to alternative transcripts that are ubiquitously expressed in several different tissues. We generated mutants for each transcript, as well as...
