Abstract excerpt
This study demonstrates that the transcriptional repressor sequence of the rat vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor (VIPR) gene constitutes a 42-base pair core element that is the binding site for a nuclear protein. We showed that this element was able to confer transcriptional repression to a heterologous promoter and that deletion or point mutations within this element resulted in loss of transcriptional...
