Interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF-1) mediates cell growth inhibition by transactivation of downstream target genes
1 Jan 1993
Abstract excerpt
Interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF-1) is a DNA-binding factor which recognizes regulatory elements in the promoters of interferon (IFN)-beta and some IFN-inducible genes. We observed that expression of transfected murine IRF-1 in different mammalian cell lines leads to down-regulation or stop of proliferation depending on the extent of expression. Expression of fusion proteins composed of IRF-1 and the hormone...
