Abstract excerpt
The expression of alpha-smooth muscle actin is coordinately regulated by positive and negative cis- elements in the promoter region. Although cis -elements and trans -acting factors involved in the positive regulation of the alpha-smooth muscle (alpha-SM) actin gene have been well characterized, details of negative regulation remain unclear. In functional analyses using cultured gizzard smooth muscle cells, we...
