Identification and characterization of a heme responsive element in the hrg-1 promoter
(2008)
Despite its biological significance, little is known about how animals sense and respond to heme to maintain homeostasis. C. elegans is a heme auxotroph, which makes it an excellent model to identify and dissect heme ...
THE FUNCTIONAL REGULATION OF FCRN EXPRESSION AND FCRN-MEDIATED ANTIGEN PRESENTATION
(2009)
The neonatal Fc receptor for IgG (FcRn), a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related molecule, plays an important role in IgG transport and protection. The transport of IgG across epithelial and endothelial ...
IDENTIFICATION OF A NON-CLASSICAL GLUCOCORTICOID-RESPONSIVE ELEMENT IN THE 5'-FLANKING REGION OF THE CHICKEN GROWTH HORMONE GENE
(2010)
Growth hormone (GH) effects growth and contributes to a lean phenotype in broiler chickens. GH secretion by the anterior pituitary begins on embryonic day (e) 14, concomitantly with a rise in adrenal glucocorticoids (GC) ...
