Abstract excerpt
In order to determine the transactivation domain(s) of the rat estrogen receptor (rat ER), we made a number of rat ER deletion mutants and transfected the mutant plasmids into COS7 cells together with an estrogen-responsive reporter plasmid, ERE-tk(197)-CAT, which contained the estrogen response element of Xenopus vitellogenin A2 gene. We have identified and localized the N-terminal transactivation domain of the...
