Interferon-γ Induction of the Human Leukocyte Antigen-E Gene Is Mediated through Binding of a Complex Containing STAT1α to a Distinct Interferon-γ-responsive Element
1 Aug 1996
Abstract excerpt
Expression of the human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I genes has been shown previously to increase at the transcriptional level following exposure to interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). In this report we have examined the molecular mechanisms involved in the IFN-gamma-induced transcription of the human MHC class I gene, HLA-E. Functional analysis of CAT reporter gene constructs under the control of the...
