Abstract excerpt
We have investigated the ability of several transcriptionally inactive estrogen receptor (ER) mutants to block endogenous ER-mediated transcription in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. In transient transfections of MCF-7 cells, two of the mutants, a frame-shifted ER (S554fs) and a point-mutated ER (L540Q), strongly inhibit the ability of endogenous wild-type ER to activate transcription of estrogen-regulated...
