Abstract excerpt
ACTH-dependent transcriptional activation of the bovine CYP17 gene (the gene encoding cytochrome P450 steroid 17 alpha-hydroxylase) involves two cAMP-responsive sequences (CRS1 and CRS2) located in the promoter region. Here we demonstrate that two nuclear orphan receptors, chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter transcription factor (COUP-TF) and steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1), bind to the part of the CRS2 element...
