Abstract excerpt
Interferon (IFN)-gamma induces the expression of the indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase (INDO) gene in human cells, which plays a role in the inhibitory effect of IFN-gamma on intracellular pathogens and on cell proliferation. Earlier studies established that the IFN-gamma-inducible expression of the INDO gene was dependent on two upstream elements: (i) a 14-base pair sequence homologous to an interferon-stimulated...
