Abstract excerpt
We have previously shown that a novel -74 C-to-T mutation in the promoter of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p18(Ink4c) (p18) gene was associated with a reduced p18 expression in B cells from mice carrying the Sle2c1 lupus susceptibility locus. To determine the function of the -74 C/T single nucleotide polymorphism, we have characterized the proximal promoter of the mouse p18 gene. Functional analysis of...
