Interferon Regulatory Factor-2 Is a Transcriptional Activator in Muscle Where It Regulates Expression of Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule-1
9 Mar 1998
Abstract excerpt
Previously, we have suggested that vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and its integrin receptor alpha4beta1 mediate cell-cell interactions important for skeletal myogenesis. Expression of the receptors subsequently subsides in muscle after birth. Here, we examine the mechanism regulating VCAM-1 gene expression in muscle. An enhancer located between the TATA box and the transcriptional start site is...
