Abstract excerpt
We investigated the transcriptional activity of the -131 to -92 region of the rat alpha2A-adrenergic receptor gene. In HT29 cells, this region has a positive effect on transcription, whereas in RINm5F cells, this region has a negative effect on transcription. The -131 to -92 region has a GC box (GGGGCGG) surrounded by overlapping GGAGG repeats. To analyze nuclear factor binding to this region, we made a series of...
