cis-Acting Elements and Transcription Factors Involved in the Promoter Activity of the Human Factor VIII Gene
1 May 1995
Abstract excerpt
Factor VIII is a glycoprotein that is essential for blood coagulation. Although factor VIII mRNA has been detected in a variety of human tissues, hepatocytes are considered to be the major source of plasma factor VIII. In this report we demonstrate that the 5'-flanking region of the factor VIII gene is able to transcribe a luciferase reporter gene in three human liver-derived cell lines: PLC/PRF/5, Chang, and...
