Interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF-3) plays an important role in virus and double-stranded RNA-mediated induction of type I interferon and RANTES, DNA damage signaling, tumor suppression, and virus-induced apoptosis. However, cis elements or trans factors responsible for regulating IRF-3 expression remain largely unknown. Here we report that the transcription factor E2F1 negatively regulates the basal...
