Abstract excerpt
Transcription of the human vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) gene is regulated by both cyclic AMP and phorbol esters. A 17-nucleotide enhancer element within the human VIP gene mediates transcriptional activation by both phorbol esters and forskolin. Mutations of this element decrease responses to both agents, suggesting that the trans-acting proteins that mediate both modes of transcriptional regulation have...
