Abstract excerpt
PU.1 is a transcription factor present in B-cells and macrophages. Here, we report our studies on the role of PU.1 in myelopoiesis using human neutrophil elastase (HNE) as a model. HNE, a component of the primary granules of mature granulocytes, is a serine protease which is transcriptionally res...
