Abstract excerpt
Pituitary-specific transcription of the evolutionarily related rat (r) GH and PRL genes involves synergistic interactions between Pit-1 and other promoter-binding factors including nuclear receptors. We show that Pit-1/thyroid hormone receptor (TR) and Pit-1/estrogen receptor (ER) synergistic activation of the rGH and rPRL promoters are globally similar. Both synergies depend upon the same activation functions in...
