Novel cis-acting elements in the human platelet-derived growth factor B-chain core promoter that mediate gene expression in cultured vascular endothelial cells.
1 Sept 1994
Abstract excerpt
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a potent mitogen and chemoattractant constitutively expressed by a variety of normal and transformed cells. Transient transfection and deletion analysis of the human c-sis proto-oncogene in cultured vascular endothelial cells revealed a minimal core promoter region extending 82 base pairs upstream from the TATA box. Two novel and functional cis-acting elements were...
