Abstract excerpt
We studied the implications of progesterone-dependent transcription factors in the hormonal and tissue-specific induction of the uteroglobin gene (ug) in the rabbit endometrium. Previously, we have observed the interaction of two progesterone-dependent endometrial nuclear proteins (TRBPs) with sequences downstream from the ug TATA box. Using electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) we show here that TRBPs...
