Abstract excerpt
The constitutive and cytokine-induced levels of major histocompatibility (MHC) class I expression are tightly controlled at the transcriptional level. In this study, it is shown that the cis-acting regulatory element site alpha of the MHC class I promoter is essential for the IFN gamma-induced transactivation of MHC class I gene expression through the ISRE. Moreover, it was discovered that the class II...
