Abstract excerpt
Transcription factor Sp1 is a Cys2His2-type zinc finger protein that specifically binds to GC-boxes on numerous viral and cellular genes. In this study, we prepared several Sp1 mutant peptides Sp1 (530-696) containing zinc finger region and the domain D, and Sp1 (530--623) containing only zinc finger region, and then investigated the participation of the C-terminal domain D of Sp1 for GC-box binding. Gel mobility...
