Multiple and Essential Sp1 Binding Sites in the Promoter for Transforming Growth Factor-β Type I Receptor
1 Aug 1997
Abstract excerpt
Maximal gene expression driven by the promoter for the transforming growth factor beta type I receptor (TGF-betaRI) occurs with a 1. 0-kilobase pair fragment immediately upstream of exon 1. This region lacks a typical TATA box but contains CCAAT boxes, multiple Sp1, and PEBP2/CBFalpha binding sites among other possible cis-acting elements. Alterations within two CCAAT box sequences do not mitigate reporter gene...
