Abstract excerpt
Sequence analysis of the 5'flanking region of the beta-cell specific transcription unit of the rat glucokinase gene (r beta GK) revealed the presence of sequence motifs very similar to the IEB-(Far)-box and a CT-motif which play a crucial role in transcriptional control of insulin genes. 5'deletional analysis of the r beta GK proximal promoter element (localized between nucleotides -278 and -49) as well as site...
