Abstract excerpt
The v-erbA oncoprotein P75gag-v-erbA, derived from the thyroid hormone receptor alpha (TR alpha), functions as a transdominant transcriptional repressor. The mechanism by which P75gag-v-erbA acts is however poorly characterized. Here, we show that repression of TR alpha mediated transcription by P75gag-v-erbA in transformed erythroblasts is dependent on the structure of the thyroid hormone response element to...
