Abstract excerpt

The Ah receptor (Ahr) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that positively regulates inducible expression of the CYP1A1 gene. Based on the sequence information of the human Ahr and the intron-exon junctions of the mouse counterpart, an analysis of single-strand conformational polymorphism (...
