Analysis of the promoter region of the interleukin-2 receptor alpha chain (CD25) gene in human B lymphocytes
1999-01-01
Abstract excerpt
In T and B cells, attenuation of an undefined negative regulatory element binding protein (NRE-BP) binding to a negative regulatory element (NRE) removes the suppression of transcriptional activity upon the promoter of a unique 55kDa IL-2 receptor subunit, CD25. This event leads to the expression of CD25 at the cell surface. In human B cells IL-4, a potent activator of CD25 transcription abolishes ISIRE binding ac...
