Abstract excerpt
hLEF/TCF-1 alpha is a lymphoid cell-specific HMG protein that activates the distal enhancer of the gene encoding the alpha-subunit of the T-cell receptor (TCR alpha). We have shown previously that transcriptional activation by hLEF is highly dependent on the context of its binding site within the...
