Activation of the Megakaryocyte-specific Gene Platelet Basic Protein (PBP) by the Ets Family Factor PU.1

1 Oct 1997

Abstract excerpt

Platelet basic protein (PBP) is a chemokine family member that is only found in platelets and their precursors megakaryocytes. The PBP gene is physically linked to the gene for another platelet-specific chemokine, platelet factor 4. While the biological basis of platelet factor 4 expression has been pursued by others, the regulatory features controlling the platelet-specific expression of PBP have not been...
