Abstract excerpt
In this study, we performed an analysis of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alpha 3 subunit gene promoter region, -238/+47, to identify cis and trans elements that are important for basal activity in PC12 cells. Sequence analyses of the alpha 3 promoter and footprint assays revealed an Sp1 binding site between -79 and -57 (termed the alpha 3 GA motif) and an AP2 binding site between -30 and -7. Using...
