Abstract excerpt
The murine transcription factor ALF1 belongs to the class of basic helix-loop-helix proteins specific for the NCAGNTGN-version of the E-box. Binding of homodimeric ALF1 to variants of this motif was studied by a combination of binding site selection technology and DNA modification interference analysis. The results showed that substitutions at the non-conserved positions in the E-box sequence could cause profound...
