Abstract excerpt
The adenovirus E1a protein stimulates transcription of viral early genes. Recent experiments indicate that E1a contains a transcriptional activating region, which functions when directed to a promoter. Because E1a is not a sequence-specific DNA binding protein, how it targets to viral promoters has been a question. Several of the viral early promoters contain one or more binding sites for ATFs, a family of...
